My AMD 940 with the V8 is stable at 3.7 so just watch your temps, make sure everything is good, even use the BIOS temps if possible.  They post a bit hotter then what they really are but they are as reliable as it gets.  Good luck and good OCin!

maybe this awesome sniper case with a trillion fans and this xtremeGear Ultra Heatpipe  thingie i got in there but this seems VERY extreme.  i thought they were supposed to run like 70-90c



hey guys..just wanna bump this out for XtremeGear HP1216 performances..is really awesome....look read the quote....i proof it right
