    If the new stuff needs a new mobo, doesn't it make more sense to not overclock and wait for CPU upgrades from the last gen once people switch and get more of the older high-end processors on the market?

      Ultimately how aggressively you want to increase the voltage (and clocks it permits) is a question of how tolerable current performance is vs how much you can afford to lose the affected components.

      When prices to replace components decrease, the pressure to use a smaller voltage increase decreases.
