From the review

"one of the highlights of the new Core i7-2600K is its outstanding overclocking capability. We were able to put it to run at 4.9 GHz, an impressive 44.1% increase in the CPU’s internal clock rate"

WOW ! If only electrons could move faster

Once the PC overclock to 4.7, can it run 24/7 ?

I heard they are overclocking the i7 2600k over 5GHz now.

I have not overclocked mine yet, I just don't see the need right now.

If you overclock above 4GHz, can the PC run 24/7 ?
Which model of CPU cooler do you recommend for overclocking ?
