Clocking my new 2500K

Well, i've currently got it sat at 4.5GHz but I needed to bump the voltage up to 1.32v to get it stable. Temps are in the high sixties when stressed to the max on prime. Although I haven't the side panel on my case yet so that will most likely go up a bit. Does this sound ok so far?

Anyone with any tips then? Wondering if my deodorant is working here, lol

I would keep the cpu below 75c and you will be fine, pop the cover on and monitor.

I have to say the temps are a little higher than I expected with my TRU. Maybe it's time to get a silver arrow.

Just had a BSOD while stress testing so it's obviously not stable at 1.32v and 4.5GHz. Backed it down to 4.3GHz now and also disabled spread spectrum. Also disabled the turbo mode and speedstep thing so it's constantly at 4.3GHz.
