All a matter of how much you want to try and push your N900.
AFAIK, "noone" had their N900 die flat due to overclocking as of yet.
Also, before it dies flat, it will crash, hang or reboot anyways. =P
Lowering voltages is to reduce the stress/heat on the CPU.
So just try everything at stock default voltages first.
Then try lowering the voltages at the same frequencies if stable using default.
ok lowing the voltage reduces stress/heat on cpu, but dont we need to up the amperage to get the same job done?... also, isnt this opposite of how they jack up gthe voltage on long distance power lines to reduce heat?

So it seems your N900 is a bit unlucky in terms of having an average sample of the CPU.
btw, amperage is governed by how hungry the CPU is.
Basically, cpu frequency governs the power that it needs.
Higher voltage = more power used by the CPU = heat.

perpetually trying now just to check for ya...
running at 250 900 lv
opened apps: App manager, conky, cpufrequi, file manager, calendar, conversations, mussorgsky, drnoksnes, microb with one web open (3G)..
oh... and listening to Robbie William's Beyond the Sea
Music sounds great

ok... checked cpufrequi...
I know it ain't the most accurate one out there..
38 C/59 raw
Song still sounds great.
