Some OC talk. What stable clocks have you gotten with your sandy/ivy bridge cpus? and what settings? Been messing around a bit with my 3770k and am kind of a noob when it comes to overclocking. but im getting there

got a stable 4.5Ghz with 1.25v Vcore right now and i think thats the lowest voltage i can get stable with my chip 
or is there some tweaks i can do to lower it more * +

got it stable earlier @4.6Ghz with 1.30v but it was kind of hot over 80s in the intel burn in test and prime95 didnt try 1.29 etc on 1.25v it crashed @4.6ghz * +

have to but some new thermal paste i have applied it too much at one side and core 0 and 3 are 10c lower at load. using artic silver cermanique and its been a really good paste this far on every cpu i have used it. * +

How are you applying the paste ? Always use a pea size amount and let the heatsink spread it with preasure . * +

I would leave the voltage alone and push the cpu as far as you can on stock volts to see how far you can go before you blue screen .Then start with the small voltage increases .If your a noob at overclocking then be carefull * +

am using the pea size allways with 1155 but this time i must have leaned to one side or something. with my i3 in the other pc i got 30-35c with the stock intel paste on stock cooler. after i changed to artic silver it dropped to 26c * +

Set the cpu voltage at the defualt manually before increasing the multiplier otherwise the board will add voltage as its needed . Use cpuz to find your defualt volts and start from there . You should be able to hit 4.2 at stock easy * +
