4.0ghz is getting up there, even I don't push mine that hard, mostly because I don't wanna raise the CPU's VCORE which equates to higher temps, I run at 3.8ghz with my FSB bumped up to 800mhz at a 1 to 1 ratio without having to mess with my memory timings or DIMM voltage settings. If you don't even know what I'm talking there, I suggest you do some SERIOUS research before even attempting to overclock.
Go see my friends here and here for info. Make an account and be prepared to be info overloaded for awhile. There simply is no cookie cutter way to OC CPU's, there are to many variables to consider. Screwing up can cost you, literally.
