Bah! I knew I should have waited.
I delidded, amd was only able to manage 4.6.
I was at 4.5 before the delidding.
I scared the crap out of myself while I was delidding though. I used the razor blade method and put a scratch in the top, just enough to uncover some copper through the green...
My i920 just died. Sadly after 4 years of overclocking, the magic smoke got let out...
I had it at 3.5GHz for 3 years of air cooling and 3.8GHz for a year of water cooling. Now I mourn her death.
Got the Asrock Z87E-ITX and a 4770k my trust x58 kit. At 4.4 GHz it is quite a bit zippier...
