I have both of my 750's at 1.85, with cheap coolermaster HSF's. No problems with heat, and I get good o/c results...

As a rule of thumb increase the vcore by 0.1V/100Mhz. Bear in mind that this is going to increase your temps. Thereafter decrease the vcore until the system just starts to become unstable then increase the vcore by one increment (mine would be 0.025). Durons will go up to 2.05V. Heat is the biggest problem you are going to contend with.

I've gone 2.06v on mine. Got me an extra 100mhz over what's in my sig. Too bad my power supply is crap. :mad:
