€dit: Had to increase the voltage to 1,02V to get it stable with S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Btw: Why do you OC your CPU to nearly 5Ghz? I got mine @4,2Ghz and I havent seen a game yet where the CPU is the bottleneck. 5Ghz just wastes more energy
Stock clocks mine is fine. However once I start putting in the addtional voltage the temps go through the roof.

5GHz is just to say I reached 5GHz. Like when I had my E8400 and I was trying to do it and I only got to at most 3.8GHz I think. Come the next stepping those were doing 4GHz+ with ease.

I've seen decent clocks on the stock coolers. What was the most you pushed yours with. I was going to go with the 670 PE w/ Twin Frozr, but I opted for the 7950 instead.
