I think the cpu itself is where volts are fed for QPI, but QPI itself runs through the whole chipset, ie from cpu to nb to SB, between memory and CPU, etc, i think...
Yeah, that was kinda sarcasm, kinda not. Maybe, for good OC'ing, .05 is a good rule of thumb.

Also, I remember reading some reviews where guys were using 1.55 vtt right out of the gate... Don't know how good it is for 24.7 as only time will tell.

As far as QPI cooling goes, I guess that means one using high QPI should have solid airflow/low ambient. I'm trying to figure out a way I can mount my rig in a glass/acrylic box in my window. Kinda like a window extension of sorts... Think air conditioner, hollow inside. It is winter after all - 12 inches of snow on the ground. Oh, to be young and energetic.
