You're within a good range for benching and stability testing. These chips can take a lot of heat, but I'm personally trying to stay ~75°C load for 24/7 use. Right now, this has limited me to 3.6GHz on stock cooling, but once my damn retention clip arrives from the States so that I can hook up my Vendetta 2, I expect I'll be able to do ~4.0GHz with those temps. My chip will do 4.0GHz+ @ ~1.3V load, but my temps were ~90C° after an hour of Prime.

For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.
