Simple question; when an overclock causes random reboots is that because the CPU has had enough or there's a power issue... or is it something else?

Temps are fine, bordering on 'cool' tbh.
 
The very edge of the heatsink base that touches the cpu top/cap reads 38'C under load. That's using a professional motorsport infrared pyrometer.
 
Already at 1.5v (Phenom II x3 720BE@ 3.6GHz). From what I've read I should be safe to 1.5 at a push...
