Mine's max VID is 1.20V and it gets hot as hell. WAY hotter than my old C0 E8400. I've got a lapped TRUE, but have not lapped the chip itself.

I mena it is perfectly happy and stable at 4.4 @ 1.328V, but it runs HOT.

One thing I've noticed is there has been NO degradation whatseoever with this E8600.
