Got mine yesterday. Now running stable at 4.4GHz' date=' 1.315V and max temp of 73°C on the hottest core (small fft Prime95) with a Noctua NH-D14. Unless i'm doing something wrong, it's not a very good chip i think. [/quote']

You could probably back that voltage down a bit! Doing so will lower heat and allow for more room to OC

Well, i worked with 0.005V increments. Anything less than 1.325V wasn't 100% stable.

I ran Prime95 for a couple of hours yesterday (2 hours of small fft and 1 hour of blend tests), so far so good.

Are there any other settings that are worth taking a look at except the vcore?

Also, the max recommended vcore is around 1.4V, right?

1.5 is the max vcore that i'd recommend, and that's just for attempting to get a record, then go back to a normal oc. Sorry if there are any typo's i'm wearing like 4 band-aids on my fingers.

Mine's running at 4.4GHz and 1.210V. Cooler Master Hyper N520, a remnant from my old SFF case cools it. Might upgrade to something bigger in the future, but for now I'm fine.
