My 24/7 clock is 8x475 = 3.8ghz @ 1.336v IntelBurnTest stable (20x). It was prime95 blend stable for 2 days at 1.312, and overnight at 1.304,
so no more wasting hours testing for half-stability. I've bumped vtt & nb core since these screenshots, but if all you want is prime/occt stability...

I have gone up to 3.99ghz / 499fsb on this board, and with my ep45-ds3r I have done an hour of prime95 small ffts at 4ghz. Very happy with my chip & both boards.

I was hovering around 80-85 C when 4ghz with prime95... but I started using IntelBurnTest today and
wow does it get the cpu hot. First time I have tripped the PROCHOT switch.

500fsb is a no go on the p5q-e but I ran IntelBurnTest run 10 times. I had to increase some of my voltages to get a 2 day
prime95 blend-stable box stable with IBT so it seems pretty good at what it does.

I'm sure I don't need vcore this high since I did 4.0ghz on my ep45-ds3r with 1.42v, but I was going for 500 and when I wasn't willing to increase any voltages I just backed down to 499 at the insane levels to see if it was a wall. it was.

nb cooling! yup... i haven't attached the fan yet so it's held up by a usb stick.
