I've heard that 1.85 is the highest the vcore should be set at before you can cause severe damage. I currently have mine set at 1.85 in my BIOS but in my monitoring program in windows it shows it fluctuating from 1.84-1.9? most of the time at 1.86..... can this be a problem?? I would like to try and make this chip last atleast until next summer.

Thanks!

This is called overvolting. Some boards undervolt, others overvolt. Simply drop your VCore in bios to 1.82 or so and you will acheive 1.85 for sure.
