Nice video and I laugh at the noob who asked why you didn't use level up lol.

Not really impressive though, but I'm sure that wasn't your goal. No HT, you use everest for 5 mins which proves absolutely nothing...stuff like that hurts the overall message.

Yes I know.. I need to enable HT, get to 4.0GHz and get my memory up to 1800MHz

5 mins at 70c.. It doesnt go higher, I have had that 3.8 for 7 days straight now, It is 100% stable

1.375v seems very high for 3.8ghz, are you sure you need that much? It should be able to do it at less than 1.3v, would help your temps and stuff, though they aren't too high.

Kate Beckinsale for the ultimate win.

Just tried 190 bus speed (4.0GHz) with HT enabled at 1.36v, 10minutes with Lavalys Everest Stability Test = 81c and working just fine

Try Prime95 or Intel Burn Test and see what happens when you get all four cores under heavy load. Make sure in task manager that all 4 cores are being stressed. Your temps will undoubtedly skyrocket with the stock Intel cooler.
