i pulled the trigger on a 6 core with the hardware mentioned in my title. i will be cooling it with a corsair h50.

what tips and things should i know about OC'ing the 1055t to a potential 4ghz?

what temps should i expect? what is too high?
what voltage should i be looking for? whats too high?
what settings should the memory be set at?
what mobo settings do i have to change?

any advice or experience listed here is greatly appreciated and will probably save me time. i am coming from a opty 175 socket 939 so this is going to be huge! can't wait
