[OC] How well do the i7 920's overclock?

I am hoping that by sometime this fall or early winter, I can build a new system, and if I can swing it, using an i7 920. How well does it overclock compared to the core 2 processors?

What kind of clocks are you guys getting?

I never had a c2 but i am quite happy with my i7:

»Re: [Cooling] CoolerMaster V8 rocks!!!

This box is running now for weeks 24/7 without any problems. I saw guys pushing the chip to 4.3-4.4 GHz without breaking a sweat. I also saw some new D0 steppings of this i920 with another 10%-15 overclock.

Not the cheapest mobo, but a very good overclocker with a i7.

Depends, there are two major revisions out, the C0 and the D0.

If we are talking about the D0 your looking at 4 GHZ on air. The C0 depends, maybe ~3.5 on air.

Which one you get is usually the luck of the draw.

You can get a guaranteed do stepping from tankguys.com but a little pricey @ 320 for a 920

I've had my i920 for a few months now. I run a 24/7 oc of 3.7Ghz. I use a Noctua cooler to keep full load temps in the low 70's. The system has been rock solid so far.
