Still can't get it far enough. CPUID site.

1.096v? Hahahaha absolutely not xD

Didnt Amd cpus hit 8ghz+ on two cores and on LN2 which is far hotter than liquid He. So yeah nothing special really.

Do CPU OC feats with disabled cores impress you?

A missing option: I don't care about OC'ing and OC'ers. It's like a competition in eating as much as you possibly can - some people find it amusing and interesting, just not me.

This has quite a bit higher IPC than AMD's BD/PD chips.

Der8auer already beat that score: hwbot.org/submission/3563158_der8auer_cpu_frequency_core_i7_7740k_7562.25_mhz

For me it's only exciting if it's ALL CORES. With 80% of cores disabled, you're not really overclocking the same CPU anymore...

This is the 4c/8t model, so it's only 50%. But I share the opinion, all cores/features or go home.

It looks like que autor of this article doesnt know that cpu-z or any other software solution monitoring doesnt work at XOC.

How can you occ that high without increasing the voltage????????????????????????????????????????

Isn't it obvious? Just add more question marks.

Its not a poll. Cool story... keep the hate to yourself, or at least, not in a thread about LN2/LHe overclocking....we get it... you say that when you can it seems.

Its not obvious that isn;t reading right? And in the article it says 1.99V I believe?
EDIT: Some article said 1.99V I think... need to dig it up, lol!

Bruno VieiraIt looks like que autor of this article doesnt know that cpu-z or any other software solution monitoring doesnt work at XOC.

It works when XOC... its just CPUz isn't updated for the latest platform.... and the author doesn't seem to know that either. And seems to think its logical that less than stock voltage gives 75% overclocks.

Also typos in the 5 sentences... Oy vey... have someone fact check and proofread before putting things up... :)

EarthDogIts not obvious that isn;t reading right? And in the article it says 1.99V I believe?

I must be blind, but I cannot find any reference to 1.99V...

Ninja edited... its in some article I read about this, just not the one linked.

Point is, CLEARLY 1.096v wouldn't do it....

Liquid nitrogen = -196c, Liquid helium = -268.9c. Cold ! :twitch:

Is liquid helium any more challenging than LN2? Or just more expensive? Thinking along the lines of thermal paste, cold bugs etc? It's pretty incredible how far they got this kaby, although I dunno how I feel about disabling 2 cores to get there.

MUCH more challenging than ln2. You need a special dispenser from tbe tank to tbe pot that costs am arse load. Cpus are delidded and re timd so the seal doesnt break (done with ln2 as well). Its an expensive pita.

Again, cores dont matter... they were going for clocks. They will do this fkr single threaded benchmarks too. ;)

Does it still count if it's an ES chip and only two cores?

I guess people overclocking with LH sound kinda funny after LH boils away :D

Mark TDer8auer already beat that score: hwbot.org/submission/3563158_der8auer_cpu_frequency_core_i7_7740k_7562.25_mhz

AND he did it with all cores and HT enabled, which is even more impressive.

Caring1Does it still count if it's an ES chip and only two cores?

Yes, but you can't get boints for current gen ES chips.

EarthDogYes, but you can't get boints for current gen ES chips.

You can in Elite League.

pkyAND he did it with all cores and HT enabled, which is even more impressive.

It's not like the chip could run benchmarks at 7.56GHz so I really don't get why most people care about the number of cores. 4 cores with HT that will crash if you look at them wrong and 1 core that crashes if you look at it wrong is equally useless.

Personally I'd be interested to see what the 7.56G chip can do with no HT and only 1 core.

[XC] Oj101You can in Elite League.

Good point... forgot about that. They wanted me in there because I get a (single) ES for review... basically told them to kiss it as I am not sponsored or get any other help like those guys do.

cdawallThis has quite a bit higher IPC than AMD's BD/PD chips.

LMAO that doesn't matter! You won't be using either this or that BD CPU for actual tasks.


They were both overclocked under extreme circumstances to see who could reach the highest clock. The record holder is still AMD.
