I posted my experience on Hard, unfortunately I could not get many responses.
The summary of my overclock is I can get my i7 stable @ 3.8ghz (19x200) with 1.16 vcore (no vdrop). Passes prime, linx, OCCT no problem. I'd like to go further but the temperature is what's holding me back. Even at 1.16v, using a Silverstone TJ10 case, the temperature is around 73-77 under load. I'm using a Xigmatek S1283 with bolt kit and a Asus Deluxe V2. I have a C0/C1 stepping, one of the late March batch. Please help me reach 4.0+ghz. I checked the thermal grease, it looks perfect dead-center.
