Core i5 Overclocking and Feedback

No one to respond to my question ?
 
So got me an i5 650 and H55 board to replace the i7 rig. With the help of sneekypeet and fitseries3 got this thing going. Ram is on auto for now to see what the chip can do. Once I find a nice max benchable, I'll see what this thing can really do. Oh yea, would help if i got a long flexi sli bridge. CPU volts are actually set to 1.45 in BIOS, board overvolts a bit.

5GHz, that's awesome!
 
Nice CPU clocks, but dam 6-9-9-22 @ 600MHz.
 
Yeah, my bad I meant 8-9-9-22, are you sure you can't get those timings to even 7-7-7-21? It would help greatly.
 
First OC using GB's EasyTuner6 for my i5-750:D Will do a 4Ghz run later;) Cooler is TRUE Black BTW with 2 fans.
