What's the highest voltage your Duron runs at for overclocking, heatsink used, motherboard, etc.?

CPU - OEM Duron 800 @ 945MHz (7 x 135)
Motherboard: Abit KT7A-RAID
Heatsink - Taisol CGK742092
Voltage - 1.775 volts (actually 1.800 on the KT7A-RAID)

I've tried 1GHz (7.5 x 133) before at 1.825 volts (actually 1.850), but it would lock up after about a hour in Windows 2000 (RC5 was running in the background). The system has been running at 945MHz for about 2 weeks now. CPU idle temp is 35C with system temps of 25C and 27C.

Can you guys tell me your overclocking experience and the higher limits of voltage increases on the Duron?
 
isn't there a place called, www.overclockers.com with its own database, I dunno, but alot of people began spring break last night, so I'm expecting the general poprulation to drop off around here. And the inteligence level of some people to drop too.
 
Spring break already?? It's still winter:Q We don't start Spring Break here until mid March and high school folks don't start unitl April.
 
duron 650 on all sides of 1 Gig.
it runs at any voltage but I've settled at 1.725v and 3.5v. At 1.85v it gets hot and flakey so until I can keep it cool enough I don't bother trying to max it out. Fsb (or PCI) is weak and tweaked just a little (about 5 Mhz got drive errors at 110 or 112Mhz). This is on a Soltek sl75kv2+x (great memory numbers). I can pretty much say that this Cpu is rock solid at 1000 + or - 20 but until there is a waterblock machined 1.80v or greater is just increasing instability. Maybe better cooling won't help much and it just dosen't like being in the 1.8's. You're in a different situation with the 133A but to sum up I find poorer results above 1.8v. Is this a cooling problem or just a voltage limit. Not sure yet.

it will do 110 FSB at 6.5X but starts to crap out if I go over 7.5X
