So far I haven't found SB to be as stable as 1366. I've had twice the bsod's and shutdowns with my three 2600k's in the couple months I've had them than all the time I ran my two i7-9x0s..
And they're all 4.5 with more than enough voltage. With different boards.. so I don't what it is..
Cruncher #1: EVGA Z68 FTW | i7-2600k @ 4.5 | 6GB Ram
Cruncher #2: Supermicro Dual-Socket | 2 x 6-core Opterons | 4GB Ram
Cruncher #3: 8-core Xserve 1,1
T400 for non-crunching

Weird I find SB to be the most stable architecture I have ever used. It takes a lot to get them to BSOD and they set up and OC so easy.
Then again my 1366 experience is limited.
But way better than LGA775. Man my QX6700 and Q9650... you just have to look at them funny and they BSOD. Seriously!

I just tried getting my 2600K on 4.6 with 1.265 VCore... BSOD damned...
And the Q9650 proc...my cousin had one... indeed look funny at them and they crash.... he has an 2700K now and now he's happy :P
