What? Your 3dmark link shows 4.1ghz and then you say you ran only 50 percent of it at 3900.. I don't get what you're talking about.

The 3dmark was run with a 8x463=3707
Sorry i didnt check 3dmarks info
Only use 3dmark to see if it is stable
Ran it at 3900 half way through it restarted
If i up voltage good chance i can run 3dmark@3900
Whats the maxium voltage i can run 3to7 hours daily
