I can't fathom it either, either these things put out a monstrous amount of heat at those clock speeds and voltages, or I've got the waterblock mounted wrong. I had to disassemble the TT cooling tower because one of the fans didn't work.

I've tried various degrees of pressure, various greases, various methods of cooling. Water cooling gets me 3.733, where as air didn't.

I had to up voltage slightly (1.56~) for stability - prime95 at 46min and counting. Wonder with temps of 83C-85C am I going to see premature death? =P
