I have overclocked my i5 to 4.5 GHz stable, I have not touched vcore at all, this is my first time overclocking and I wanted to know if this is normal

[Thorimus]

Have you performed any stability tests, i.e. running a benchmark for a long time?

What are your temps. Sounds about right i would say. I have mine clocked at 4.7ghz @1.33ghz

that's fine. You might want to let it stress time a little longer tho

[Thorimus]

Sounds good. Run the benchmark for a little longer, maybe a couple of hours, just to be sure. Out of interest, what cooler are you using?
