Ya you would really have to crank out some volts to make it sweat. But I guess the question why is a little out of place because why do we really need to tweak our computers?
Wate...
Ok, Im ready to be hit:

These OC effortlessly! I shamefully admit I arrived at this OC in 3 large steps with only F@H determining stability. The only reason I stopped here are extra tricks are required on this board to get over 360FSB stable. One of which is kicking the PCI-E up to 120mhz. I've only seen guys at the DFI site doing this. I'm not sure about long term reliability. I'm pretty happy where I'm at. Cooler temps would be nice although I read these procs can and do run reliably at 70C. People are also pushing the vcore up to 1.6. I'm not that brave or adventurous just yet. My E-6300 isn't doing as well. It's running 56-58C on water and it's only at 2520. I'll have to play more with it to get a better clock. I've seen others driving them to 3.2 and beyond. At least the E-6300 won't hurt as badly if it goes pop.

You can use a Overclocking program to underclock your graphics card and raise the bus speed, I have done this before but I have never had a reason to keep it that way.

It looks good and I am very jealous. I haven't had a new system in almost a year now and the itch to "upgrade" is really getting to me. Enjoy the Conroe and looking forward to some specs as to how it performs...talker. :smoke:

Besides the power supply- have there been any problems?
Or is there anything you'd wish you had done? :rolleyes:
You have a great setup going there- makes me want to get going on my next build also
