How much Vcore voltage boost is needed for major overclocking of Athlon XP?

[Divebrake]

I have a new system built around the Epox 8KHA+ with Athlon XP 1600+ unlocked. This 8KHA+ bios allows a Vcore voltage boost of only 0.1V, which I've heard is not enough for major overclocking. I've been running overclocked with 11.5 multiplier (XP 1800+ speed, not a radical overclock) and the standard 266 FSB for a few days and the system seems rock solid. I'd like to know how far I can increase the multiplier before the Vcore voltage becomes an issue.

I am up to 1.95v and 146FSB. it would not overclock any higher otherwise. i may have to up it even more.

What CPU do you have? My XP 1600+ has a default Vcore voltage of 1.75, so my 0.1V boost only brings it to 1.85V. I don't plan on overclocking the FSB. I've read things about components being destroyed by FSB overclocking. I want my system to last a while.
