Wow. I am even more happy to know that I never had to increase my voltage at all when I OC'd my Q9450. What a great CPU for overclocking. I am sure I could get more out of it, but the CPU builder/consultant I used told me he had tested his systems for quite some time, and always got them to remain stable when OC'd from 2.66 to 3.2GHz. So that's where I stopped--and I didn't have to increase the voltage at all.

But I read on some OC'ers forums, where some folks were try to get these chips to near 4GHz! Man, they must be running 1.5v or even higher, to get them that fast.
