Don't need to compare AMD or Intel here. AMD have very high VCore to begin with. They surely need higher VCore to have better OCing. But this doesn't mean they've very high temperature and can't be OC much.
And, yes VCore of 1.45V in the BIOS is too much. I suggest you to do more researches before you spoiled your system.

Don't need to worry too much for the temperature actually. Even if you're hitting 90C, it's nothing also. It won't spoil like that.

QUOTE(duboisi @ Mar 17 2011, 11:54 PM) For daily usage mode (stability and longivity), most people recommend running prime95 for 2 hrs (or 4 pass of Linx) without error, maintain temperature of between 65c-70c, using Vcore of less than 1.35v-1.4v. Don't confused with high Ghz achieved with high temperature and Vcore during OC as suitable setting for daily usage. These are for benchmarking and show off to friends. I OC my PC 24/7, I don't see it's only for show off. It's more like what stuffs you're doing. Gaming for now, you don't need it at all. Maybe in the future, you might need to OC...

Intel claims their Processor will only spoil after 10 Years of 100% usages. Having 75-85C(when being stressed) for High-End Processor of Intel is normal and nothing to be afraid of.
But, having idling temperature like 55C+ is something bad. I don't like this. Yet, it won't kill the Processor again. Processor is just too durable.
