i7 920 @ 4GHz, vcore question

[Rizen]

I've finally managed to my i7 920 to 4GHz. However, it takes around 1.41vcore on load to ensure stability. It's a C0/C1 stepping, so not quite as friendly as a D0.

However, I want to make sure that this is not too much vcore. VTT is at 1.37, DRAM is at 1.65v.

Temps are mid 73-78C across the cores on Prime95 Blend mode on a TRUE Extreme 1366.

Thoughts?

That sounds about right for the C0 at that speed - 78 full load? Try Linx - that sounds really low to be under full load at that voltage.
