    No FSB records broken here, but after installing a pair of half-decent modules, I've finally managed to get completely stable at 480x9 / 1150 PL8 with 4gb of this chaintech stuff - surprisingly good sticks of memory - only 1.86v needed of their recommended 2.1v for rated timings .
    Current Vcore of 1.4 is way overkill and I reckon I could drop at least .05v considering I could do 4.17GHz with 1.25v. I'm am yet to plot how this CPU scales with voltage, just wanted to rule out any cpu instability whilst I push the mobo & memory...



    *Edit:

    Managed to get vcore down to 1.3125v. That's not bad for 4.32GHz is it?

    Now I'm looking at pushing to 490
