In Finality (CPU Odyssey)

Finally got it. 4.116 GHz. I might back off a bit of the voltages, just to make sure I'm being efficient, so some of this is subject to change, but she is stable "as is".

For those who might be interested, here is my system:

CPU: Intel Core i7 920 (C0 stepper)
Motherboard: EVGA X58 SLI
RAM: Corsair Dominator 1600 2GBx3 (6GB RAM total)
Video Card: BFGTech Nvidia 285 OCX
Case: Antec 900 (first generation)
Fan alterations: Zalman CNPS9900 CPU fan & additional 120MM side case fan.

CPU Overclock Statistics:
BCLK: 196.0
Multiplier: 1st core 21x196 (4.116GHz) 2,3,4 cores 20x196 (3.920GHz)
VCore: 1.28750 V
DIMM Voltage: 1.65 V
VTT: 1.25 V
Turbo Mode ON
Speed Step OFF
Hyper Threading OFF

I would like to point out that overclocking your computer is not something for the faint of heart. Doing so poses serious risk to damaging your CPU, motherboard and other devices. Inevitably, this can also void your warranty on said parts. Only those with experience with computers and/or overclocking should attempt to do so. If you are new to overclocking, I recommend lots of studying before doing so.
