    Well nothing Xtreme like some of you guys but it will do.
    Under load and with many many programs running along and without my external 12' fan pushing air in the tower the core temp reached 60degrees.
    I even managed to hit 4302MHz but i had to push Vcore further and i just couldnt see it reach 64degrees..Was too much for only 297MHz gain.

    Oh VCore is 1.375v and CPU PLL 1.58v.

    If someone here get's a new e8400 with the batch: Q802A492, deliver it back, sell it, or throw it to the trash. It runs on defualt voltage on 3.6ghz which sounds good, but on 4.0ghz it need 1.43V or more (haven' testet it over 8 hours), but it failed under that. So beware! Almost all here on this thread seems lucky with their e8400, but I have never been. First a Q748A that needed 1.43V in bios to get stable and now this ****
    Why it always have to be me
