Almost @ 7 GHz in a Phenom II 955: WOW

WR for an E8600 is like 8.1 ghz.

 

i still remember before phenom II release when AMD say the phenom II can overclock higher than 5GHz and many people don't believe them , now we say 7GHz that's great

 

Nope:

Not @ 7 GHz yet but, according to K|NGP|N, it seems it is achievable with that CPU.

Apparently, the dude didn't have time to "properly push the CPU to it's limits" so it is possible.


Remember: that 7127 MHz score is fake.

 

LMAO!

proof?

 

It seems the dude is confusing P4's WR, which is over 8.1 GHz, with E8600 WR.

Check my previous post: it has a pic with the current E8600 WR.

 

so to get that speed on air cooling we'd need 10nm processes on a 16 core Intel Processor running at 0.2v - so in about 10 years then... but not with silicon...

 

No that is a cedar mill Pentium 4. Its a single core. The world record for an e8600 is 6.777ghz.

 

According to this, not that much really, which makes it even more impressive.

Unless CPU-Z is reading the voltage wrong: i don't really know *Frown

 

Yeah I saw that and deleted my msg lol, sorry.

I also found out that they did do the super pi... omg that's so fast *Eek!

 

here is a Decent OC Database, just wonder how legit the OCs are

but seriously an AMD Athlon XP Barton Core OC to 3.5GHz!?

The World Record Database

jealous because i cant get mine to 2.4GHz and its a Mobility Athlon 2500+ (45w 133x14/266x7= 1867MHz oc to 200x11= 2200MHz=3200+)

 

There are some more posts in the dude's topic @ XS (page 4).

 

Apparently, this speed has already been beaten ... by 7.6 MHz ...

No CPU-Z validation yet but this was done while being filmed and the video IS available: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/1565059

The full topic is here: new record -- 6930Mhz

EDIT

Look @ about 1:01:30 into the film: it shows a speed of 6930 MHz with 1.375 vCore (if CPU-Z is reading correctly).

 

vcore is way off

 

Lets start a kitty fund for CD and see how high he can clock his 955 under Liquid He *Big Grin
I donate $10 cad

 

so still there is 100 MHz more
