Cheers :) furthest I've taken it was 5.5Ghz for a HWBot Super Pi 1M run. From what I remember I used around 1.52v to get there. I reckon I could do a Cinebench 5.3-5.4 run without too much voltage. If I have time this weekend I'll have another go.

Edit:

5.3Ghz

My Xeon X5650, running 4416MHz using 221MHz FSB (Asus P6X58D-E) and 1.4v. DDR3 is at 1768MHz 7-7-7-20 triple channel:

Its 10-15% faster at handbrake encoding than my 4770K @ 4.5GHz aswell.
 
How are you cooling that @ 1.4v? What ram are you running?

A Noctua NH-D14 with the standard fans. The memory is three sticks of single 4GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical DDR1866 CAS 8 (couldn't find a decent triple channel kit anymore). This is with DDR volts at standard and QPI at 1.3v.

The CPU can do 4.5GHz at 1.41v semi-stable using 22 x 205MHz but scores lower than at 20 x 221MHz above. Unfortunately at 222MHz and above the board won't post at any QPI volts or RAM speed setting.
 
Have you disabled turbo boost? Surely running pretty hot under prime/IBT at 1.4v?

Yes turbo is disabled. Its generally 70-80C max when encoding and under IBT maximum no higher than about 90C.

It runs much cooler than my i7 4770K @ 4.5GHz despite putting out 182w. A larger core and soldered die makes the difference. Not bad for a £60 CPU in a 5 year old motherboard!
