I ran my Q6600 up to 3.8 on air would go up to 4.1 but not stable, just booted winXP . I was limited by my memory timing

I’ve got an i7 920 onboard over here. On stock air with 3 case fans, I’ve got it running at 3.8ghz. It doesn’t sound like much, but it can run Prime95 all night. And that’s an accomplishment.
I can benchmark and run the thing at 4.2ghz, with only 1.3vcore. I think I got one out of the good batch

There’s a big difference between running a superfast overclocked system coated with liquid nitrogen for a burst-mode calculation for a few seconds, and getting a stable overclocked system that you can use everyday.
I’ve been running a 4.5 GHz Intel i7-920 from LiquidNitrogenOverclocking.com now for months with no problems (and it is water-cooled, not liquid nitrogen cooled).
These guys did it right!
