May 24, 201214 yr As always, Tom's only gets it half right. If they can't even maintain 4.5GHz clocks at stock voltage - THEY'RE USING INADEQUATE COOLING!

May 25, 201214 yr Actually there's plenty of people who have succesfully replaced the TIM using Liquid Pro and have lowered their temps by some amazing 20ºC This is in spanish, but the graphs shoud be self explanatory: http://foro.noticias3d.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=391334
