    Victor, I believe how you can get a higher overclock, simply because you can supply a little extra voltage if needed. However, for us crunchers, I don't think it'll make much of a difference, since we're never on the bleeding edge of stability.
    Main rig:
    CPU: I7 920C0 @ 3.6Ghz (180*20)
    Mobo: DFI UT X58 T3eH8
    RAM: 12GB OCZ DDR3-1600 Platinum
    GPU/LCD: GeForce GTX280 + GeForce 8600GTS (Quad LCDs)
    Intel X25-M G2 80GB, 12TB storage
    PSU/Case: Corsair AX850, Silverstone TJ07

    This is true. 2-3C is the difference between random reboots every couple of hours/days to no reboots.

    What? You should be on the bleeding edge of stability, given the thermal ups and downs of your house/room. 2-3C can break it.
