When a CPU is Overclocked, should the voltage be set at auto or manual?

What is the standard rule in setting voltage of CPU in OC ?

I have single core intel 3.2GHZ. I have overclocked it to 3.28GHZ. It can go to 3.36 GHZ without problem. I am concerned about the voltage level.

LOLOL, you overclocked it 80mhz.... love it... 8)

Ya, when i overclocked mine, as you can see in my sig below, i got pretty high, even to 2.9ghz with the auto voltage setting. I also have a good motherboard though, so check and see what your motherboard is like when it comes to overclocking.
