4.1GHz maybe - You should check "Accurate VBeam Emulation" if you use LLE. This can help you to gain some FPS more without even more overclocking. (There was a thread about this, but I don't find it anymore Dodgy )

In your gamelist click right on your game. In Properties you'll find "VBeam"
final Results:
SMG2
- works properly only with 4 cores @ 4,2 GHz + LLE on thread + Lock Threads to Cores
- no benefit from 'acurate vbeam emu at all'
- as mentioned temps are somewhere between 60 and 70 °C ( on katana 3)
- minor slowdowns when a lot of things are rendered ( world 1 - level with cloud-powerup)
- for some reason if eur60 mode is off the game runs in fullspeed but renders with only 30fps making it perfectly playable but in slow-mo ( this ocured after i tried the vbeam setting )

Zelda SS
with LLE enabled often slowdowns, no matter which settings -> perfect with HLE (wanst SMG2 much more demanding?)

Note about CPU oc:

42x multi with 1,120 ~ 1,128 V (asRock z77 pro3 oc auto voltage) - decent chip?
-> too hot with 43x; bluescreen with 44x

i hope this could help other people!

You know the max temperature on a 3570K is 100C right? You could go alot higher and it would be just fine. Most overclockers keep it just under 90C.
True but it isnt very wise to go further than 77 if you want your cpu to live for a while^^ ( the probelm was the shrink to 22nm - too hot on less space)
At least this is what i read.
Plus the CPU fan would be as loud as an vacuum cleaner if id go too high - and that is also a problem, a first-world-problem ;-)
What cooler are you using? Overclocking fans should usually be quiet.
As already mentioned: Scythe Katana 3.
Try with less demanding games to see what your temps are. But with that CPU and this cooling system you shouldn't be afraid of overclocking.
I plan to build with this processor soon so I've been expecting for good reports Big Grin

People shouldn't makeup random processor speeds that they think will run the COD game. The game runs at 1fps in interpreter and is not playable until it gets fixed. Once it works with the Jit, it shouldn't be that tough to run it full speed. We can run any game in interpreter and say that it needs xGHz, but that's not really the point. No one plays games in interpreter because it's not possible to do so at decent speeds.
