i5 2500K and the ASUS P8P67-M Pro and no issues. If you research your mobo properly and pick a good quality one there should be no problem.

Quick question since I've yet to do any overclocking in the turbo boost era. Is that 4.5ghz you mention your full-time speed with turbo disabled? Or the max single-core turbo? Or the max four-core turbo?

TIA.

IM running 4.8ghz air cooled on p67-pro and its been rock stable since day one.I even went threw 2 of them because the first one got the sata recall and both overclock exaclty the same.

Im even using 4 sticks of ram at 2200+mhz with decent timings.

That's the speed that each individual core can reach. Each core will be at 4.5 Ghz if you have it at 100% load.

Nice. What voltage, temps, and cooler are you getting/using?

2500k with a Gigabyte GA-H67A-UD3H-B3 board. No overclocking. Major motherboard problems within a few days (boot cycling in particular). Nothing wrong with the processor as far as I can tell.

Full time 4.5 ghz with turbo disabled.
