Nobody use 5GHz for 24/7 because nobody need that. 4GHz is not so good for daily use because your CPU will go to one period when it needs more voltage for 4GHz an so on. But a lot of people have 4GHz for 24/7 and it's safe if you need low voltage for hit it (1.25-1.35V).

not retail??? so its not gonna be sold to the public?

to get mine at 4.0ghz i had to set my vcore to 1.3625.
i have it set now at 3.6ghz and have my settings in bios at auto andmy vcore. is like 1.18v its not requireing that much to get anywhere between 3.0/3.6
i dont remember if the 1.3625v would let me be stable at 3.8ghz or not.
so then 1.3625v isnt bad at all for running 4.0ghz.
