I just find it really hard to believe AMD Chips doing 4.1 Ghz Stable on 1.43v with air...

I can hardly validate that 4.1 @ 1.43v. I suppose Cecil's and my C3's are dud chips. 3.9 on 1.51v with 2.6 NB 1.275v for my chip on air isn't really too much to brag about, while my load temps only see 54-54.5c in OCCT and 52-53c in Prime95.

I thought about getting a Megahalems Rev B with a 120/38 Panaflo but I doubt I will see too much improvement.

I could be seeing a temp wall, because I've been running 4 Ghz @ 1.52v for about 10 hours now. Just wish I could conclude it's stable, but this way only several days/weeks will tell.
