Do any of those games (other than WoW which I expect is a joke to a 2600k anyway) actually use the processor much? I'd expect that even if it's been clocked extremely high as long as it's not being tasked to do much then it wouldn't get hot.
I mean looking at what Miba is doing; my Althon II x3 system is capable of doing it perfectly fine.
Anyway stress testings seem to be pretty pointless I can't imagen getting 100% usage out of a system unless your intentionally trying to get 100% usage. Getting a CPU to 100% with video encoding? Yeah. Getting a GFX card to 100% with ubersampling (I think thats one of the most demanding settings now from witcher 2?)?. Yeah video encoding and ubersampled Witcher 2? Your doing it for your ego so if your system crashes then you can't really complain.
As it's appeared to turn into a discussion about Miba's ability to overclock and his magical processor then to add my 2 cents: I don't have the slightest idea if it's possible but like I said above stress tests are unrealistic and components don't constantly run at 100%.

Ye lets leave it. Point is the sandy bridge processors seem quite overclock friendly

On a 2600K, WoW will use 1 core quite heavily, 70-80% load, and 2 secondary cores at like 30-50%. The 4th can be reserved for the OS, which will use like 10-30% usually. So you most likely wont get it to 95 degrees with WoW XD

Was orginally going to post about it having 5.3 terabytes of data written onto it but that's only like 70 complete rewrites but aren't they suppost to be able to do 10k rewrites? If so a 3% preformance loss for 70 rewrites seems pretty bad. (Disclaimer: Does not have a SSD!)
