    Running P95 now, it's nowhere near as stressing as the IBT, it only gets up to 49C at max load...

    Tisc Tisc.....

    True overclockers dont monitor temperature

    What you want is looping of 3dmark06's cpu tests 3 times

    Set your bios to emergency shutdown at 105*C

    If it turns off its too hot, and if it crashes it needs more voltage

    Thats how i did it at i31 anyway, over 4.2 GHZ from a qx6700 on a Coolermaster Aquagate mini R80

    - they are probably the worst watercooling availible btw if you read reviews, worse than a decent fan stack :P

    At i31 i had that cooler with 2 big high speed case extractor fans, running at over 90-100 *C xD

    Lol, I'll keep that all in mind Mitch . I may have a shot at getting as high as poss over the weekend.

    I've been debating going for a water-cooled setup as my next upgrade, but from reading around it would be too much hassle every time I upgrade a video card. The TRUE is good enough to not need to be replaced by an enclosed CPU Water-cooling system, and I may just grab two 1900RPM Scythe Kazi's for a push-pull system with a CPU Upgrade in a year (Hopeful for a cheap QX9650 ) (And yes, I have high noise tolerance levels lol.)

    3.5Ghz is tops atm, going to go and see if I can break the 4Ghz barrier.

    (Voltage is around 1.37 atm, load temps are 73C max)

    I use Orthos for dual core CPUs, meant to be the best.

    My E6400 CPU has been at 3.2Ghz for a few years, a 50% overclock from 2.13Ghz stock. CPUZ says the voltage is 1.37, don't know how accurate that is though.
