Core 2 Duo E8600 @ 6.7GHz!!!!

But all the CPU manufacturers stopped the GHz war coz it resuts in a lot of heating up...?

*www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/core2duo-e8600_2.html#sect0

it says the processor operates at 3339.7 Mhz not 6721.63 Mhz. Are you sure the figures you mentioned are correct?

Thats right, its overclocked.
Board is the key here.Monster of a board, Asus Rampage Extreme

Its done by Andre Yang, a famous overclocker.

whats the price of this processor ?

Haha mad OCing!

Should be around 12k

At this speed even the highest end gfx card will be a bottleneck for gaming

Its the other way round, CPUs are bottleneck for current generation of GPUs

oh yeah...thn chk this extreme overclocking - its a wrld recrd in 3DMark world record: *www.techfreakiez.com/freaky/videos.html?task=videodirectlink&id=15

thy used liquid nitrogen to cool the systm :O:O

Huh.. You jsut can't compare the processing power of GFX with CPU ! Both have different set of instructions. .Well to be honest even 7Ghz CPu won't be too much for any GPU

On a personal not. These kind of thinsg are wonder for lay man. .Atleast in India How many of Us can buy Liquiq Nitrogen for a mere OC ? I mean for low time ? Also H2O cooling can't handle these stuff !

Its Shamino, the master himself !!
LN2 has been used for quite some time now
Its fun to bench using LN2

BTW, Shamino is the same guy responsible for superb boards like Foxconn MARS and Foxconn Blackops.

LN2 is cheap, its the Dewar that is expensive and very rare to find any on rent so Dry Ice + Acetone is more convenient

only 6.7Ghz not break the P4 record 8Ghz

OMG the great Darky is here Nice to see ya around Well I haven't done any Dry ICE and Acetone Ocin on my Sis Q6600 lets see if I can get my hands over it Currently happy with WC kit

Before you get hold of Dry Ice and Acetone, dont forget to get hold a pot first

infact 45nm chips run much cooler compared to 65nm older ones

OMG ... This is insane !
