You can get 4.5 on a stock cooler although temps would be on the limits. You would have no probs with the Dark Rock though IIRC it's only about 5-10 *c higher temp wise than what the D14 would get.
 
yeah this is just the advanced single fan not the double. Ok good stuff 4.5 is all i'm after really nothing too hardcore as it'll be my first overclock. I've heard 1.3v is a good start for 4.5. would you guys agree?
