Considering I'm really only using my sytem for gaming that's not a problem and it just goes to show that reading up on the finer details for overclocking does help alot.

(I would still like 3DSages chip though, 5GHz @1.38v...insane ) Off now to install service pack 1 and get some AVX loving.
Props on the overclock, temps are ideal imo...
4.7GHZ is Still a beast

BTW How much does your SB core temps differ? I have one core that is about 4-6C cooler than the other cores on load
