I finally was able to overclock my cpu in the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility to 4.0 from 3.4

I ran a windows index score to see if my score for my CPU would boost up or not...Though after running it, my CPU score actually dropped?! Not by a lot, but why would it drop it I overclocked it to 4.0 when it was originally 3.4? That makes no sense to me..

On the other note..I have an Antec Kuhler h20 620 for my CPU. Do you think I can successfully and safely overclock my CPU more than 4.0?

Thanks guys.
