It's a 65nm chip so those volts are fine, I had a 3220 that I used to bench at 1.6V and run 24/7 at 1.475 @ 3.7gig....those load temps look OK although you wouldnt want to go too much higher than that without better cooling because that is fairly warm for that voltage/overclock.

Difficult to say, you will have to try, bottom line is once you hit the 70's C at load, it's gonna start getting toasty, I like to keep mine below 70 but 65nm can go upto the 80's.

By that you mean my coretemp? or Cpu temp?

Thanks for being patient i am new to the overclocking business

He probably means the core temps. Use Realtemp to monitor your temps.

The Xeon G0 stepping Quads are 85c Tjunc, which is the center top side of your integrated heatsink, *the metal heatsink that's over your cores on your processor.

I normally like to keep mine under 50c personally, but with quads that's pretty rough.
Yours is looking pretty good.

Xeon > Core2
