Essentially:

P6T SE
i7 920 @ 3.8GHz 1.2375V
Ultra 120 Extreme
Sycthe Juno 1600rpm and same on case exhaust.
Lian Li PC-V1000Z
XFX 5850
Intel X25
2 velicoraptor 300Gb
600w StealthXStream
6GB Trident CAS 6 1600MHz RAM

Left it running max intel burntest @ 300 just to see temps throughout the day monitored by realtemp to record time and max temp.
When i left home it was 7:30ish and around 7C outdoors. When i came in i noted Core 1 had hit 76C at 7:52AM which was under 8C still from what i remember. The temps shot up to around 16C around here during the day, which i thought would have a more adverse effect on the temperature yet the cpu actually never hit 76C again? I'm sure ambient would've climbed to about 28C in the house during the day. IBT was still going when i got in at about test 160 or so lol . Weird huh? :D

it is, lol!

System specs is very good :)

lol cheers. It'll be my main rig for awhile. Still looking for another low voltage 4Ghz+ 920 or 930. Will keep my eyes out if a customer build comes up or at work since they aren't usually overclocked (work never, customers sometimes). This chip needs 1.3125v to be solid at 4Ghz but at the noise level i want it'd be in the 90s on a hot day which for 200mhz is not worth the noise and extra heat/volts.
