Guys, now I need help and tips/tricks from ya :)

Im set for two goals, both utterly useless to be honest but I still want to reach them.

My first goal is to break the WR for a CPU-Z Validation on an aircooled E6850.

As far as I know right now the WR is 4437 Mhz taken by pytonorm on sweclockers.
My best result so far on that one is 4.3 Ghz with 1.6 VCore, I want to be able to best that WR. Here's my validation link: http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=232282

The second goal I have is to be able to break 14K in 3dMark 06 with my rig, I believe this should be plausible. I havent reached the maxclocks yet for my GTX but I feel that I'm not too far away.

So any tweaks that increases my score in 3dmark would be greatly appreciated. I've been able so far to bench 3dmark with my CPU at 4140 Mhz, I hope to get it bench stable @ 4.2GHz by tonight.

Help a fellow overclocker out will ya? System that I'm talöking about is in sig

First what are your current 3dmark scores? Also what do you have as far as aircooling goes for your cpu? if you haven't already loosen up your ram timings to see if that is what is holding you back.

PS You're right those goals do suck. Although it sounds like you are doing pretty good on the first one though. Good Luck! With the progress you have made so far it sounds like you may be able to break that record.
