Weird or what?

Ight, when i first got my fx-6100 i was able to OC it to 4.2ghz stable @ 1.415v(24hr p95) any lower would cause my computer to crash. But now I took of the OC for a few weeks and i decided to OC it again, so i did but this time 4.0ghz. I managed to OC it stable on 4.0ghz on 1.315v stable(24hr p95). So i said this is weird so i upped voltage to 1.375v and managed to hit 4.6ghz stable(12hr p95). I am using a air cooler, and a mobo with no vrm heatsinks. During the 4.6ghz test i did have a desk fan blowing directly on the vrms keeping them cool. I stopped at 12hours because i dont want to risk it further. Do you think i scored lucky on this chip? Weird or what? xD

I wouldn't say you were lucky with the chip, you're running very high voltages.

Those are high for intel chips, but I don't think they are for amd.
