I7 voltages?

What sort of QTT/QPI and IOH voltages are most of you guys using to get stable overclocks?

I've managed to get my I7 upto 4ghz rock stable( passes OCCT, Intelburn test and prime 95 until I give up after 48odd hours). at 1.248V( as read on CPU-Z under load) (VID 1.1475) 1.2875v in the bios with load line calibration.

I've needed tha QTT/QPI voltage to be 1.34 and the IOH bumped upto 1.140v to get it stable, if I drop these even slightly I get a BSOD. Mine seems a bit higher than most of you guys.

I also Use OCZ platinum 1600Mhz memory, at 1.64v.

Well heres my settings mate, my 1st core it a hot little bugger.
Seems our chips are much the same in that they like a lot of volts too.

Some chips are very different. Mine clocks well but runs very hot for its voltage which kinda sucks while still on air cooling.

my chip seems to be very simlar indeed. simlar core temps too. core 0 always reads as the hottest, 1 and 2 3-4degrees cooler and core 4 coolest at 3-4 degrees cooler still.
