Is that 4.8ghz stable on something like intelburntest? I can't get my 2500K stable unless I put a lot of volts through it (like 1.4x for 4.8 and 5.0Ghz requires 1.5V) so I dropped it back to 4.6.

Ugh, got to love how it's always in-store only... Maybe I'll create Majorcenter and run them out of business. Washington State only baby. And maybe one in Las Vegas.
