Was impatient and did a little bit last night. 4.5Ghz with only small tweaks to VCore and Memory. Looked good, stressed overnight, crashed sometime after I went to bed. Had to actually short the CMOS to get it back up and running. Nuts.

What a terrible board if it doesn't reset itself so you can change settings to correct stability. For 4.5 with a 2500k I had to use around 1.32v.
For my i5-2500k@4.5 vcore 1.285 LLC=Ultra High
Took the 670 out, put an old 285 in and had no problems. It can’t be the power draw of the card. The TDP of the 285 is about 30 plus W above the 670. Going to step back and rethink what I am doing. I am actually going to read the manual *gasp* to see if I am missing anything. This is only my 2nd weekend off since July. Not sure if I want to spend it inside a computer case. Maybe if it rains….
Your computer is plenty fast stock anyways. I would spend that time playing a game or spending time with my family =)
