What is the recommended vcore for CPU overclocking?
You should consider the extra power needed to boost performance beyond 2.66GHz. Estimating the required voltage increase for reaching 3GHz and possibly 3.5Ghz depends on your cooling solution, but you’ll likely need a higher voltage to maintain stability at those frequencies.
To the extent required before reaching voltage or thermal boundaries, I would investigate the safe voltage and temperature ranges for the CPU and gradually increase, conducting stress tests until errors cease. Of course, when overclocking beyond just the multiplier, you must consider memory controller speed/voltages and other parts, which complicates the process.
