Yeah I did mean at stock settings.
If you overclock, you're responsible. Losing warranty sounds acceptable to me. Better than manufacturers doing everything to make overclocking impossible.
To me, it's a great way to get more performance out of an old chip, the warranty would be expired at that point.
It is hard to prove a CPU was overclocked though, so I can see some people taking advantage of that.
