Sure I can, but thats my 24/7 overclock. Also I have to start pushing carefully as my core temps are the upper 70ish and low 80ish ºC I dont wanto to get on the 90ºC territory.

I have to add that i live on a kinda hot place, ambient temps are about 30-35 ºC, that was an SS on the worst moment I could have done it, without AC and on day when the ambient temps are nasty.

Later, I will try overclocking at night with AC, so my ambient temps wont be so bad.

I was unhappy with temps, so i tweaked a few things. Much happier with this.

That voltage is a bit high. You should be able to get to 4.6GHz at 1.3v? That's allowing for chip characteristics.

Try 1.28v for 4.4GHz.

Rechecked my stock-speed voltage and noticed the VID was higher than I had previously thought. (Stcok-settings v-droop was making me see lower-than-stock voltages.)

So I bumped the voltages up to the stock-speed VID using an LLC bump and a stronger negative offset.

This seems to have resulted in an absolute max of 1.256v, with full load v-core drooping down to 1.240v.

"Almost stable" at 4.3 with this voltage but prime95 BSOD's after a few minutes. IBT passes fine, even on "very high" settings.

4.2 works for both prime 95 and IBT.

Max core temp of 73C with IBT. Think I may reinstall the second fan on the 212+.

Really theres almost no way to prove you are stable. I was running at 4.8Ghz at 1.38volts. I ran prime95 for over 12 hours. I ran Intel Burn In Test on the extreme setting over night all with no BSOD's or crashes. I also ran PCMark7, Passmark 8, 3DMark11, Cinebench 11.5, and SuperPi. All of this I ran without crashing. But the first time I played Borderlands 2 on Steam my PC would crash EVERY TIME. Just goes to show you that synthetic benchmarks and "stress tests" don't tell you everything about a PC you need to know. You have to actually use it for a WHILE to be 100 percnt certain. Just my 2 cents from my experiences.

BTW, currently I am at 4.7Ghz with 1.38 voltage with temps of 80c average on my 3570k w/Scythe Ninja 3, w/Antec 902 case, w/Gigabyte UD3H MoBo. And I can say for sure I am COMPLETELY stable.

I remplace my thermal paste an also tight my waterblock a little more, it just change my temps pretty well!

My old OC game temps over 70ish degree, even the hottest core went up to 82 degrees celcius.

Now with the block properly seated It barely reachs 66 degrees celcius on the hottest core

And with GPU + CPU stress at its maximum, the temps were under control completely fine! I must add that my set up is watercooler loop with a single 360 rad with 3 Cooler Master Sickleflow which are not great at all... I have a signel 120 rad lying around, i will if i can crank it into my Cooler Master Elite 430... Lol !
