Voltage plays a big part in this, too much it all goes out of wack, the same with too little voltage. I discovered this trying to get my crappy i5 750 to 4.0Ghz. One other thing, don't feel bad if you can't get your OC to what others do, I have noticed my voltage hungry i5 750 running at 3.8 Ghz out performs most 750's running at 4.0Ghz+ I chalk that up to making sure it's as close to 100% stable as possible. I know there other ways to skin a cat, but this is how I do it. I would love to here how others test their OC's and what you do to make you feel all warm and fussy about OC'ing. This is coming for a person that has had to reinstall window because his OC killed his OS.

I've come to my conclusion...
I'm running into a heat wall... I think it's time to go Liquid. Nothing major,just an H80 to see if I can take her to the 4.0Ghz mark... 'STABLE'
I'll post up my Load Temp's after I run some test's to heat this baby up...
which really isn't that hot!!!!I'm still only on a dual-core... Once I can run through one of my gaming spree's and have my rig run a normal day
at 4.0Ghz for 24hour's with out a hick-up; that's when my 'SCOUT' will go into retirement.. (wife take's owner-ship)
I'm going to throw that Phenom II 975 into the 'SCOUT'; so at least my wife will have '4' core's to do her work.
I can hit 4023.12Mhz & sit Idle all day long... 
As long as I don't touch her...LOL 
Only then will my 'TROOPER' be worked on & become my main rig.... 
Average O.C. at Idle temps'......
Two hour's of UT3-2007, maxed, 10 min's of Orthos, 45 sec's of 'ITB.... LOL One crazy way to send up the heat . I think my core's
were playing, 'Tug-of-War'!!!! LOL
