How long did you put it through stress testing?  I go with 24 hrs for mine to be sure the cpu overclock is ok.  You need to stress test that overclock of yours for some significant period of time eh.

Well then grats and hey you still could up the voltage if need be and push for more.  Once I got 4.5 GHz out of my son's AMD FX 6300 I stopped with room still left in terms of adding voltage but I think I will be working on trying to get to 4.7 GHz soon which seems to be a really good overclock for that cpu on air.  Do you think you are going to push further?

i tried 4.7 but temps went too high during blend test and i had to go back to 4.6. right now i have a kraken x40 but maybe later this year i get the x61, and ill try to push it maybe to 4.8

damn thats a good OC, specially for a FX processor. just keep in mind that FX8k series are built to reach 5ghz but yeah partnered it with good cooling
