could you get a stable 24/7 4.2ghz with a titan evo cooler?![]()
Yup but temps won't be brilliant though.

yeah i dont expect brillant for a £35 cooler. the question is could it deliver "safe" temps which dont boarder on the red zone?
Im on a mehahelims with viper fans, runs cool but it will only compete with low end water cooling, max i hit on load now is 64c, good water cooling will probably do that all year round.
just make a new thread overclocking for noobs. then make it a sticky. just dont make it to technical and do it for a few boards. most people use asus or gigabyte. would make things a lot easier
then just delete new threads asking the same thing
I've had three 920 D0s and one C0 that didn't do 4GHz reliably, built about 31 this year, 3.8 was fine but no fine tuning of the vcore or QPI unless over accepted levels/temps (forgot how much but approaching 1.5v) would get 4Ghz, both boards ran other 920s at 4GHz easily with less than 1.35v QPI and less than 1.35v. Cases i use are strictly Antec 900 and 1200 and coolers used were Noctua D14s. I can't remember the mobos in use, i think P6T of some flavour. Obviously not every core is equal and to say every chip will do 4GHz within a certain range is rather... I agree though that going by stats, you stand about the same chance to 4GHz+ whether you have a 920 or a 950 etc..
