Thanks For your time!
 
I know you are excited to crank your voltage up, and the board is rated for 2.3, however that doesn't really mean you should push it that far. Anything past 1.8 you are risking the chip, which could be fried from the voltage, regardless of your cooling.

My board actually won't let you go past 1.8 with the stock BIOS (Not an Abit board).

I know I wasn't much help, and really can't tell you what the problem is, but just want to forewarn you. (I'm sure others have told you this as well)

What about your Mosfets, and bridge temps? Do you have any fans in your system, or is it just watercooled.
