Nice little OC there. I soooo want one of those. However, I refuse to pay that much for a CPU.

Not sure how you other guys do P95 testing but I click the small then custom button and set both boxes at the bottom to 8, seems to give me the highest possible temperatures. I honestly haven't tried higher than 4GHz seriously yet, I set out to get a 6 core rock solid stable @ 4.0 and I got it so for now I'm leaving well enough alone (I probably didn't even need the voltage bump but for now it's gonna stay).
