Right now I'm running my JIUHB 0302 1700+ @ 2380 w/ 1.75v and 47 degrees. I don't want to shorten the cpu life of the processor too much. I'm wondering if 1.75v is safe if I want to keep the processor for at least 3 years. Is there any way to guess how long the cpu will last when increasing the voltage? Would it be safe to run it at 1.775 or 1.8? What are you comfortable with?

I'd stay at 1.75volts. Nice overclock BTW, and your temps are low running at that voltage. And I doubt you'll keep it for three years ;)

LOL. Me too. I have yet to keep a CPU in my main rig for more than 6 months. Kind of an addiction thing though!
