ok today i went to my local cpu store and while i was jus looking around i decided to purchase a q9650, it comes stock 3.0ghz, but i have a water cooling system and before i had the e8400 overclocked from 3.0 to 4.0ghz, im currently overclocking this quad core to 4.0ghz but i have the vcore set to 1.4000 voltage right now, i read somewhere else that they think 1.3 or something is the highest needed but it seemed for me i had to put it at 1.4000 to keep my system stable , my memory is ddr2 for now and its set at 800mhz unlinked fsb which is 1780.... soon im going to buy a 790i and some pc 2000mhz ram but for now im sticking with this, my main question is does anyone know whats the highest you can unlinked clock this quad core with my ddrpc6400, im looking to pass the 4.0ghz mark if possible just because i love high speed, i have a tempeture monitor installed so i always watch my temps but if someone wants to leave me a setup that includes voltage for, cpu / ram and then the fsb setting for pushing my quad core to the limits, please do oh and let me know whats the highest cpu temp celsius i should see before geting worried, thank you..ill be testing higher settings while i wait for a response, also i have a xfx 780i motherboard
