I'm a bad overclocker? LOL....
And I suppose the people who review the Phenom II's were bad overclockers too? And on the stock fan? Next you'll be telling me you used the stock thermal paste...
Overclocking's not hard, especially on a black-ed CPU as you can up the multiplier, while upping the voltage in sync, leaving the RAM.

Yup, you use the stock fan to overclok so overclock is a little hard.I'd said that I overclock it with my Cooling Sytem,don't try this clock at home.Maybe a reviewer also a bad overclocker, since this is the first time he overclock that CPU, maybe it's a little hard, even the Black Edition still need some experient to overclock, since overclock it to 3.8Ghz is very easy, but go to 4Ghz is becoming a little hard, and to 4.9Ghz is very hard task, I used 2 hour to overclock to that clock.

I don't use the stock fan..... I use the Thermal take big typhoon with zalman thermal paste.

Exact same motherboard I have,
And I apologise then, that's an amazing overclock. why's the HT link so small? And 1.7V
, you'd kill an Intel with 1.6V lol.

It's not 1.7, it's 1.8V
At 5.4Ghz it gets the same rank as i7 920 ~2.9ghz

@Cain : Hmm compare with what?? SuperPi maybe? Even old Pentium4 get win with that useless syintatic bencmark. Get real with real applications or games for comparation please.

I'm not comparing anything with anything, I'm just saying that 5.4Ghz gets the same rating with 3dmark2006 as 2.9ghz core i7 920. Please make your remarks make more sense
