Not my 2600K as that's just on the bench ATM, since the MSI POS never worked I never installed it into a case. I always bench my new builds first, hehehe, I start them by shorting out the pins with a screwdriver! RTFM first for those that don't know. I'll give this one until the end of the month, should be a good burn-in time as I run 24/7 @%100. Can't beat that for stability tests.
BTW, I have a good case with an opening behind the CPU but it's not enough to fit a huge HS/F backplate on there like the Hyper 212+, I find that hole basically useless unless one needs to change out the Intel HS/F and those d*mn push pins don't retract!

I most likely hit 'EDIT' in your post instead of reply.
Just saw a guy who's getting 4.9GHz with a Prolimatech cooler. Jeez man! Am I ever itching all over ATM! Fortunately, I swore to never upgrade anything under the influence, waste of time really and/or really breaking something! There's always tomorrow.
