Is that with Ht? and what voltage? Is that Linpack stable? Curious

don't have the box available to play with, but it was with a very small voltage bump and ran occt linpack for 4 hours staying in the low 70's, iirc (what i generally shoot for)... i was surprised how easy the 920 oc's...

I have the i7 920 clocked to 4095 on air. It is prime stable overnight. Idle temps are in upper 20s and with full load(in prime) the cores vary from 58-62degress. I use the meghalems to cool the processor. CPU is at 1.30V. Still working my way up on the OC though

got my 920 at 4.0ghz (1.29v) with the cogage true spirit...cost me about 55 bucks, it lists at 39.99 but i paid too much for shipping and it comes with a fan too. i think temps actually went DOWN at this speed with this cooler compared to stock speeds with stock cooler

the performance increase was worth it though...went from a 18400 3dmark06 score to a 23500, and with my graphics card oc'ed i got up to 25k
