Damage to the silicon happens when the system is forced to run in overdrive mode (550&600) constantly, because of the extra voltage required by these operating points.

Tampering with these sort of settings puts the system out of its supported operating range.

Edit:
But normal usage is ok and only those who are planning to do 24/7 number crunching on their phone should be worried.
Lets say I never put computer off. Including phone. I put it on AC.

Now I experience a bug, for example in Flash (as I experience such bug on Linux desktop) which uses 100% CPU. On desktop I not even notice since the thing has more than enough resources (quad core etc).

Now my phone is in 500/600 range whole time, correct? Is this dangerous?
