So I ran some tests on this chip to see exactly what I was dealing with, and it turns out it's a bit of a beast! 4.9GHz at 1.33 volts passed Realbench and with Prime95 FFTs, the max temps were around 79C (+5C ambient) with my Kraken x41:
So, my question is should I attempt a long term OC of 4.8 or 4.7GHz?? 4.8 passed at 1.29 volts and Prime95 FFTs maxed at 72C. 4.7 Passed at 1.25 volts with even lower temps.
Also, my mobo is a Asrock Z97E-itx.
