I respect everyone's knowledge and input, however:

I know lots of people that use 1.6v to achieve +4ghz clocks and I truely believe that as long as the temps are in safe zone, the CPU will last.

Prime is a different story, 70's definately isn't safe but on average load with games, it doesn't even hit 60c.

I guess time will tell. in 3-4 months time, i'll re-post and see if my cpu has died or not

sure achieving these clocks on air is easy, but with stability? c'mon guys...

I'm proud of the Scythe Orchi either way and I wouldn't have been able to achieve this on my old 9500LED
