My Ivy Bridge Set up.

Running at 4.4 GHz. Idle 30 Celsius.
 
My final parts arrived today, just need to wait for enough time to build it.
Bought my RAM back in November, case and PSU in December, GPU and sound card in Feb, new mouse and keyboard, SSD in March, mobo in April and finally CPU arrived today.

Been a long wait.
 
Build looks awesome. Unconventional case layout but I like it.
But why report clockspeed and idle temp but not voltage and load temp? May as well share all the information...

To generate the most CPU heat for a more accurate reading, I'd suggest running Intel Burn Test 2.53. Set it for 50 runs, and where it says Stress Level select Custom and enter an amount (I have 16GB of RAM, but enter in 12000 MB). This will create the most CPU heat and will run for several hours (usually do this when your not having to use the PC). With my 2600K at 4.4GHz and Noctua NH-D14 the highest temp was around 68C, but at 4.6GHz it's at 81C.

What accuracy is he getting running AVX which turns his Int and FP pipes into a super pipe and generates super heat never ever seen in non AVX programs?

Just because running IBT will generate the max CPU heat so you can see how good (or bad) your cooling is, and it also helps to test stability. When I'm trying different overclocks with voltage changes, I'll run IBT for 100 runs at Custom 12000 MB to see if it passes and what the temps are. If it passes that, plus Prime for 24hr, then it's a pretty stable OC.
