From what I've read that's a pretty good overclock for that CPU. What sort of temps do you get while gaming?

60-62°C @ 4.5 GHz in Prime95 In-place large FFT´s. Gaming is a few degrees lower. Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E with 140mm fan at 5V (very silent). 

I have one of those faulty 3770K's that didn't transmit the heat properly from the DIE to the HS. I shaved it off with a razor blade and used liquid metal as the thermal compound. Quite risky, but it improved the temperatures by ~17°C.

That's awesome. Good temps too.
