That set-up got me almost to 4.6 GHz, but me in my infinite wisdom, didn't get a CPU-Z validation. doh!!
I did have a cover on the buckets, but with them on, it wouldn't have been a very good picture.
As far as condensation in the socket, I don't think the cpu got cold enough. The lowest temp Real Temp showed was -8C at boot and dropped to around -1 to -2. I was more worried about drops on the vid cards.
I also had it propped on those catalogs with it nosed up to the open window. It was around 2 AM and the temp outside dropped to 7C.
