What are good overclocks for this processor ?

Hoping to hit 4.0Ghz with this, but what's the best that people have seen on high end Air cooling/low end water ?

I've had 4.1GHz out of a 915 in an Abit AL-8. Just using an AC Freezer 7 Pro. Fabulous performance from an £85 processor.

Well,my Tt Big typhoon sucks for cooling tbh, so I've had to settle for 4.1 Ghz for now.

I've gone upto 4.5Ghz without too much problems only Heat pushing me back down.

All about to change soon though hopefully.....

Well, 4.1GHz isn't bad, surely? The amazing thing is that even at 4.1GHz I'm still getting 30 second super-pi times. I can't believe how bad these processors are at SuperPi. A stock E6300 will do it at 1.86GHz in 26 seconds. WTF is going on?
