| Hi, folks! Just got one today and I'll install it tonight. Who else has one? What's the highest clock OC achievable? |

Got mine to OC to 3.5Ghz on stock cooler and volt last night. That was so easy.
When I get a better HSF, I'll go for 4GHz.  |

| I've played around with these before. Ultimately prefer the E7x series due to better cache and same ease of reaching 4ghz (in my case anyway) |

Was able to hit 4Ghz the other night. Was able to boot into the OS, open programs, etc. But when I tried playing games, it proved unstable. I need better RAMs, I think.
The E7xxx provides good value as well, but the E5xxx has better bang-for-buck rate |

I'm at 3.385Ghz with everything stock. I couldn't boot into Windows at 3.5Ghz with stock voltages, don't wanna mess with those just yet. I gained 20-30FPS playing Vanguard: Saga of Heroes compared to stock!  |

| @nolonger-- I suspect you have to adjust your RAM speed timings in order to boot higher than 3.3Ghz |

| You might want to try reducing your RAM speed first? |
