I've used Linpack, so probably the same as your HPL. I found that I would hit a point where the system would lock up it seemed fairly stable (a couple of runs of Linpack) with a lesser OC.
I can't really compare my results to Windows as I have AVX on Linux and not Windows, but I know they...
Actually, I was reading recently (on VR-Zone, I think) that NVIDIA was planning to directly compete with Xeon and such – definitely with a high-power core, but I'm thinking also definitely with a lot of cores.
VT-d is for letting the VM use the part (graphics card, network card) directly, which at the same time means it can be only used on that VM. So it wouldn't provide any real benefit in that situation as far as I know.
While you bash the i7 3770 for high temps in that preview, please remember the i5 had very low temps – and please explain the difference at the same time. I think I can explain the difference myself, but I'm going to be interested to see what others come up with on that.

Interesting to see how the 3770K and 3570K temps compare – very different for a similar overclock.
The only downside could be that they start the GUI automatically, and you would have to disable it or it will be using resources. But that's a very minor issue.
