Oh, I took my core temps to 70-72c... Oooops :D

Meaning my tcase was prolly in the 80's. Kind of sad though that my chip the higher I OC, the more voltage increments it needs. Like .05v to .07v increase for 100mhz after 4.65ghz..
I was at like 1.6v for 5ghz lol.
 
Same here. Starting at 4.7 it really needs larger and larger bumps. I had to go around 1.55V or slightly higher under load if I remember correctly to hit 5GHz. Might have been 1.57ish. Do you realize that if PD is just even a 10% increase in clocks over BD that we could have pushed them to 5.5ish if they were the PD chips?
