Dr4gon didnt see my first one :).

And the first one was awesome. :P It was just overly rude to leave out for the world to see :P.....

And yes the second sucks just because I dont want to look like the fool like SonicSam does. :)

I did see your first one, it was just as terrible; it wasn't even rude.

Tried to take it past 4.5ghz. Wanted a 100% overclock. So now that your done overclocking what sort of performance increases did you get.

I would go into the components but I feel like shit atm.

Yeah... your suprised its dead after going for 4.5ghz? Lol.

My Q6600 is 3.6ghz. I dont feel comfortable putting it up any higher without liqued cooling.

Never said I was surprised.. Even had a spare E6600 for when it did die. Which is why I say "Don't overclock unless you understand the risks and are ready to fork out for a new CPU when it suddenly dies". Have you stress tested your CPU and GPU yet..? If you plan on running it at 3.6ghz full time I suggest you leave it stressed for an hour or 2 atleast to test it out.
