ditto to 5t. I just googled dual priming; you can find explainations on how to run two Prime95s where the cpus will handle them separately. It takes a few tweaks. What stepping do you have? Mine seems to be fine with less vcore, but I'm using Redlines.

I would definately recommend the components I have in sig, I've gotten this overclock with no trouble, and I didn't have to gradually feel for my limits. I've had problems going over 300MHz HTT, and so with a 9x multi, I feel this is a comfortable place to cruise at:
