I replaced the resistors on my blu and now I went from a max OC of 166mhz, to a stable 192mhz, I can do 196mhz but only for about 10 mins. What I wanted to know was, what points do I use to measure the voltage running to the CPU? I dont want to fry it, but so far so good, running at about 2hrs in 192mhz on DrMD.

The answer to your question is in this post, its a long one but makes interesting reading.

If it runs fine for 2hrs at that speed, you can be nearly sure that it won`t fry your gp32.

Maybe it wont fry it as such, but it will shorten its life. Running a CPU faster always causes it to produce more heat, which in turn causes the micro components to degrade faster. However, how much less life you'll get is debateable.
