When I say stable it's P95 64-bit stable for an hour, haven't tried longer yet.
Only played around with various vcores for an half-an hour or so before the last prime, so with a bit more effort I could probably go lower for load if I disabled the EPU-6 thing, or prevented it from automatically reducing CPU voltage at idle, and disabled Speedstep (as I was getting crashes at lower vcore at idle (.9 or so) not load), but I suspect that would be rather self-defeating, since it spends most of its time in the base Speedstep/EPU 6 setting anyway.
But the load temps have dropped from 51'C to about 44'C for the hottest core, using the stock hsf in ~16'C ambient inside an antec sonata III with a front and rear 120mm...
Win
EDIT:
Primed for 45 mins at at 1.1625 in the BIOS, reporting at 1.008 idle and 1.096v load in CPU-Z, so I think I'll leave it at this for tonight, and maybe try ratcheting it down another step tomorrow evening.
