David,

I have basically the same OC set-up as you have and it has been running
nicely at 2.2 Volts since day one. Have an associate at the office who
followed my recommendation and ordered the same set-up ( i.e. OC'd 300A
on a BH6 board. His is now running at 2.1 volts with no apparent
problems. Mine is running 10 to 15 degrees above ambient temp as
measured with a temp sensor stuck into the heat sink. Sounds like you
should be OK.

Don't have much input on burn-in software.
