Retail E8600 Overclock, Temps, Settings Thread

[trans am]

Just went on HWBOT to keep track of the action. Here's the latest e8600 update:

one thing you should all take into consideration is of the top 10 e8600 overclocks on hwbot, 4 were done on a tpower i45 board that costs only $145.00 including the WR. 5 were on x48 Rampage extreme ($400 board) and 1 was on a GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DQ6 ($250.00)

If you are not on HWBOT already you should register and post your e8600 clocks. It's fun and all you need is a cpuz validation account. Takes 5 minutes and your scores last forever.
