Macci says it's not bench stable at that speed. He actually got it up past 6100MHz, but the computer crashed before he could save a screenshot. He says PSU mods are needed to get the system bench stable past 5.4GHz.

Yes, product placement is important, even in benchmarking.

So what you're saying is, it's bench stable at 5.4ghz, which is still an amazing feat!
