I doubt your processor is stable at that speed with that voltage, and if it is now, soon it won't be. What are you using to read temps? I don't think your temps are reading correctly even at 1.344V's. There are some new articles out about 45nm degridation, you should check them out. My temps were taken using an infrared thermometer.
actually the temp problem was something i wanted to address in this thread, i wanted to see what temps were being read..

coretemp, and HWMonitor both state my load temp is 53c (highest of the two cores, full load orthos)

i would love to check the temp with a infrared therm, i might buy one soon

and about the stable voltage, yes it is stable, and i havnt had any problems.
i did in the past but it was a motherboard instability issue (fixed threw some pencil mods)

i will check up on 45nm degridation issue
