No, it's not that hot, my cpu just refuses to remain stable as I go through 3ghz. I figured it needs chilling, but I could be wrong. Maybe I need more Vcore. I pushed it as far as 1.58v and it didn't help get through the 3ghz barrier.

Ya I had the same problem with 4Ghz. You need more v Core, and more chilling on both your nBridge, and your CPU to get through the +1Ghz barrier.

Hahaha!  I was waiting for this. Well done NickN   Grin

SimV hardware and tweaking forum takes on the world!

I wondered how long my toy cpu would last in first spot.

Actually.. that was a quicky running stock speed with no tweaks and all processes and background programs running.

If I were to unleash the full power of the beast I am sure I could shave a second or two off that time.
