Hehe… ill post when I get home. Before i had to re-install windows, (I forgot what I was clocked to so I am starting over) I hit 4.7ghz on my E8600 (stock 3.3ghz), on AIR xigmatek 13xx cooler with a Ultra Kaze 120mm on it. Lapped to 1800grit processor and heatsink. AS5 paste. GTX260 core 216 was cranked up past 700mhz. 3dmark06 was 18K+ super Pi was sub 10 seconds. The super PI thing is cool, it computes a pi(pie) what ever, computation at different file sizes. If i remember correctly the 1mb on was the standard for benching it in [Overclockers.net](http://Overclockers.net). To compaire my PC to a work laptop. My Dell D620 did the 1mb in 12 mins, and my machine did it in less than 10 seconds! ---
