youre right about that, sometimes a lower pll can stabilize a oc,
but not lower youre vcore doing so, thats what i know ..
personally i like to stay in the 1.3-1.35V vcore zone,
for daily oc's that is, if it comes to benching and see what
oc's i can do with my chip, i go up to 1.45-1.490 no problem..
i dont have temps to consider so..
ran 1.850V with that 5.5ghz ..and some other (to) high voltages on air,
my "BamBam" is still alive and kicking, no damage, no degradation whats so ever

time will tell i guess..
o, keep a eye on Hokies83, hes running 5.1ghz with 1.55V vcore 24/7
when he doesnt show up one of these days, you know thats to much ...lol
