Not at all.

If a CPU has a stock voltage of 2.5V and you can successfully run it under load at 2.0V then it will run at the same speed with exactly the same performance. Over volting it to 2.8V is the same thing, the CPU will run with identical performance (given that you don't change the bus speed), the only change is heat output.
