    5820K overclock stability?

    My strategy is to set the vcore to 1.3v override and step down from 4.5GHz by 100MHz until I find a combo that is stable. I'm down to 4.2GHz at 1.3v and it's still not stable.

    My 3770k hovers around 25-30 at idle but I don't really pay much attention to idle temps. My load temps at 4.5GHz are between 65-70.

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    I'm looking to upgrade my wireless network to hopefully get more speed. I currently have two WRT54G routers flashed with DD-WRT, One is connected to the cable modem and the other serves as a wireless bridge for my TV, Blu-ray, HD DVD, and AVR. Any tips on a budget upgrade?
