Well I "only" got to 5Ghz (only tried 5 for now!)

Bit of an error on my part in getting there though :)

I was trying to stabalise my 4.6 and changed a couple of settings. In the middle I thought what the hell, lets try 5, so I up the voltage to 1.42....

yes, thats right in image its showing 1.65 :) what I actually did was put the voltage of my RAM to 1.42 and the CPU was on auto voltage :-)

oh well, it ran, worked and then set back to 4.6 @ 1.37v to see if it stabalises overnight!

 
HiVizMan - What cooling you using?? I know one of your HWbot entries says Watercooling. You mind doing a quick rundown of spec?

I'm finding my water setup is temp limited when running vcore that high.
 
Hey guys, ive got a 2600k on the way with a UD4 board and xms3 2000mhz 2x4gb ddr3 memory. Question is, what cooler?

I was thinking the Akasa Venom CPU cooler. Any objections?
 
I'd spend the extra and get something like a Thermalright Silver Arrow, low noise and great performance.
 
It is yes but as with much in life you get what you pay for. Sure SB CPUs run cooler than the older i5/i7s but people are still finding themselves limited by their cooling when heading to and above 5GHz.

Surprised at your Super_Pi speed. Mine at 4.8 gets the million in 7.813.
 
i5 2500k at 5.1, had to go to 1.45 on cpu though.

Its been running happily at 4.7 at 1.325, 16 hours a day, for the last few weeks.

Would boot into windows at 5.2, but then BSOD, i don't know if i want to up the cpu voltage any more though ?

can anyone tell me if it would help if i changed any of the following :-
DRAM 1.5
VCCSA 0.925 (on auto at the mo)
VCCIO 1.053 (on auto at the mo)
CPU PLL 1.8
PCH 1.050

If your Vcore is accurately being read then you might just have a special CPU. Nice run beh*
