Hi. I wanted to come here to ask if it's worth pushing my i7 920 D0 further to 4GHz (currently clocked at 3.2GHz)? Also wanted to know if it's worth it in terms of game performance? I'm clocked to 3.2GHz because my ASUS board has an automatic CPU overclock feature so I had 3 options to choose from which was something like 2.8GHz, 3GHz and highest being 3.2GHz then it automatically set every other option. It's only temporary until I can push the CPU more. CPU is watercooled.
Jason.
