i7 920 @4016Mhz

Pushing cpu past 4Ghz was easy, just set multiplier to 20 with 201BCLK. Bumped vcore in bios to 1.3375v and left vdimm and CPU VTT at 1.68v and 1.44v respectively. CPUZ reports 1.36v idle and 1.328v load.

Swapped out 128MB Gainward FX5200 PCI card for single HIS HD4870x2 video card with official 8.12 Catalyst drivers. I ran 32M twice as first time i cut off part of the screenshot for SG displayed voltages
  • Super Pi 1M = 10.125s
  • Super Pi 8M = 1m 52.813s
  • Super Pi 32M = 9m 04.656s and 2nd run 9m 04.735s
  • 3Dmark06 @750/900 = 25,941
