Got to 4.9 Ghz with HT on and 1.375 volts. Going to 5.0 at 1.375 volts it was not stable so I disabled HT and went to 1.4 volts (rather modest volt) and got stable 5.0 Ghz on full Prime95 for an hour. As the temps where at 67-68 degreees I decided to call it a day and went back to my desired 4.5 at 1.25 volts. After Prime95 all night it was at 55 degrees and rock stable - with HT on... I love this little piece of silicon

using a Noctua NH-D14 air cooler and Obsidian 650D chassis.
