ya... I've seen issues with this before, but it doesn't appear to be a problem until you start pushing the voltage up. It used to be that you could push 10% over the factory voltage without issues, but it seems that with the Northwood, if you really want to be safe, drop that figure down to about 5%... anything more is almost asking for it.
