Erm, I think you're possibly pushing your luck to be honest. The limit is 9.5 as you rightly say - so this means above 9.5, not below.
That said, I know someone that ran one in a Cat K1 with a 5.5, and it did thermal - however, that was without any heatsink or fan. So with heatsink and fan, it MIGHT be ok.
