At a glance this looks just fine... IT all depends on the quality of the CPU or how cherry-picked it is.. With my old evo i could hit 4.5GHz with that CPU and with my h100i I could hit 4.7/4.8ghz but that runs too hot for my taste.. I'd use the evo to do a 4.4 or 4.5ghz OC but if it can comfortably run 4.6 or 4.7 that works too :D

Nice build though I like it. make sure you get the latest revision of that board (I think its 4.0)
