I want to see what others are running in their rigs?

I have a i7 920 D0 step (coughicherrypickedthisfromgeekboxinventorycough)

my 24/7 clock is 4.2Ghz  with a 21 multi on a 200bclk

I have had it to 4.8 "stable" 2 hours of prime 95 but only 2 min before failing of IntelBurn, played games just fine but was "finicky"

supporting hardware:
ASUS P6T7 SuperComputer motherboard
OCZ 1866mhz RAM 6GB
CoolerMaster 1000w PSU
Koolance GT350 water block
120.3 rad

I keep this on a line conditioner/battery backup. I have found its made a world of difference on my OCs stability.

i pretty sure that the core i series has automatic heat underclocking... most likely thats the issue with intelburn... not sure why it would limit the speed on games though... ?

I'm running an i7 930. Currently overclocked to 4.2GHz @ 1.225v

Currently 18 hours stable with OCCT Linpack tests. Cooling with a Cooler Master Hyper 212+ and the cores never get past 60c.  Smiley
