I've just jumped straight in at 4ghz and I'm now thinking I'd learn a lot more if I did things one step at a time.

I really need to decide which overclock I want too, as I keep toying with 21x191, 21x196, 21x200 and 20x200. Most vcore I've needed so far is 1.335 in BIOS for 21x200 but goes upto 1.38 on load so don't think its safe. Need to go back to the drawing board I think.....

Hope someone can give me some sort of structure and guidance.

Whats best bios version too, as I'm currently running 1504? Plus, I always use IBT and Prime to stress but looks like you all prefer linx on here. Is it better than IBT?

You could try my settings:
Vcore 1.35
Vtt 1.35
IOH defualt
NB / SB default
CPU Amplitude Control to 1000mv
21*201 BLCK
Lock the PCIe speed @ 101
Mem DDR1600 @ CAS 8
UNcore 3200
Vmem 1.65v
Im running a Core i7 920 @ 4.2 ghz for 13 months now. No issues whatsoever!
