I've heard that Vcore above 1.8v kills venices. I've used my venice E6 on water cooling at 1.9v for 3 weeks without any noticeable damage. Still passes OCCT, PRIME95, SuperPi, no weird crashes.

I've also read that many ppl have done 1.6V and above while keeping the temps below 55C and they noticed that after awhile their high fsb 1:1 mem overclocks start failing memtest n prime. Apparently high Vcore does something to the mem controller on the CPU... anybody care to verify?
