i see ... strangely odd that they got the same oc results with intels stock cooling as the extreme cooling maybe theres a cap on it do to nda... or early stepping or bios? guess time will tell... personally im getting a 3930k to hold me over till the ivybridge e comes out and have a nice 8-12 core 22nm cpu

I reckon the all in one CPU cooler is probably alright for suicide benchmark runs for a short time until the coolant gets hot. If I can get 5 out of 3930k I'll be pretty happy, although anything above 4.4GHz is pretty good in my books. I guess we will need to wait for some reviews and the C3 (iirc) stepping to come in.
