Maybe, maybe not, but your signature could do with a trim.

Where is the proof by keeping the temps under 70c as apposed to 75 for eg! stopping degrading?
well intel told bulldog147 that the safety lmits are 1.35v and under 70c so i guess 65c~There is none, 75c should be more than safe for silicon.
Voltage is a big transistor killer, simple as that.
Intel had told me the safer cpu chip for i5 2500K, i7 2600K and i7 2700K are no more than 1.35v! (they mean any degrading cpu) and below 70C in temperature with air cooling.
Using some common sense helps - 1.4v on a 32nm process? - Not wise for 24/7 useage tbh, its defo going to degrade the cpu at some point. It's why i've backed off to 4.8 @ 1.35v for longterm 24/7 useage.
Sensible I reckon, and in any case the extra 200Mghz is not going to make a huge difference except for benching, rather than everyday use.Think compromise is sensible.

I would think 200Mghz would be quite a boost
At the price of how much extra voltage/heat though mate
You tell me mate, you're the one with the chip.
How much extra voltage would you need for a 200Mghz boost and how much extra heat would it generate?
They scale well up till 4.6Ghz. After that it seems one needs 0.7v for each 200mhz increment. 4.8 is sustainable temperature wise for long periods of use, but 5Ghz either requires extreme cooling or compromise on stability.
Thanks for the serious answer to my not very serious question.
Going back to my post which started this chain I was referring to the fact that tipes said 200Mghz, i.e 200 million GHz.
Anyway, I assume you mean 0.07V for each 200Mhz increment.
well intel told bulldog147 that the safety lmits are 1.35v and under 70c so i guess 65c~
tbh what does it matter if it with air cooling or water cooling, if they saying keep it below 70C surely that still the same for water cooling
i guess intel told him core temp ..Are you talking core temp or CPU temp?
If cpu temp I would agree with you, but T Junction max is 98c on these chips so core temps should be fine for 75c.
