ok.....that guys post....well...not only was it written over a year ago which doesn't seem like THAT long ago but really the hardware was vastly different.
Not only that, it's fairly common knowledge that with super cooling you can go much greater leaps in speed with stock voltage then you of course ever could at normal temps, even water cooling because we are talking minimum single stage phase change.....so basically this guy is going through all this 'research' and trying to make his post seem as if he's stumbled across something crazy (not you him, the poster at phase-change) when it's the simply fact that when supercooled, your computer will go further even on it's stock voltage....with that in mind..the reason raising voltages after a certain point wont help is simply because you've hit the architectural limit of the chip.....it's pretty much a given that you're going to hit the architectural limit of the chip with super cooling long before you need to max it out with voltages.
