Not quite "Xtreme"

[kiyka]

This is a point of reference for some of the configurations I've tried on the Bloodrage/i7-920 to gauge my temperatues and what settings would be best for stable, cool, fast overclock.

This is a comparison of temperatures across all cores in relation to the three clock speeds I've tried as well as HT on and off. (Will update as I continue testing)

(Tests were done using Prime95 and OCCT)
All fan speeds, ambient temps where the same across all tests.)

I'm using the Cooler Master V8 air cooler. Neither block nor CPU have been lapped by me.

Some random settings.
