Is there any evidence it is going to be as deadly a factor as it has been with Northwoods? I run my T-Bred @ 1.75v 24/7....just wondering if I am dooming it to a lifespan of a few months by doing so :rolleyes:
 
I don't think you will have any problems with the T bred. I have seen no evidence that there are problems with running the AMDs at higher core voltage will kill them. I have done this with palaminos and have had no problems running them for over a year. The voltage you are running I don't see you hurting it with proper cooling. JMO.
 
I agree I think alot of the electromigration problems with northies were due to improper or risky volt modding. ie wirewrapping or contact tracing. I never volt mod chips because of this.
