Assuming that my cpu temperatures are reasonable (48C at full load on H20 cooling--I know it's a bit hot), what's the highest voltage I can feed my overclocked 1.33ghz Axia? Would 2.1-2.2 volts damage the cpu?

I'm currently running at about 2.0 volts (Epox 8K7A mobo), but I can't get 100% stability at 1.54-56ghz, where I'd like to be. Normal programs run fine, and even my 3d modeling/rendering software runs fine (trueSpace 5). But Prime 95 craps out after about five minutes.

Thanks for your help!
