Q9550 on a EVGA 790i Ultra

I upgraded my 680i with a lapped E8400 to the Q9550 and a Evga 790i Ultra. Question I have is what kid of over clocks has anyone in here gotten with that board and CPU. I had the E8400 @ 4.0 stable on a custom liquid cooled using a Swiftech Apogee GTZ. Now I have seen on other sites where some had an OC of 3.6. I would hope some have gotten higher then that. If not I'm not sure my Evga 295 in SLI would run fine and end up bottle necked.

Thanks and lets hope this over clocks like mad. Also has anyone ever had a ES Q9550 which if you did not know is the engineers sample. Was wondering would those over clock better and are they the pick of the crop from the engineers.

Again thanks nad wish me luck as I'm pushing for 4.0.
