AMD Threadripper PRO 5995WX Overclocks to 5.15 GHz, Crushes Cinebench R23 World-Record
An AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX 64-core/128-thread workstation processor was overclocked to 5.15 GHz all-core by Taiwanese overclocker TSAIK, under extreme cooling, and it [predictably] crushed the Cinebench R23 world-record. The chip scored a godlike 116142 points in the multi-threaded benchmark, ahead of the previous record-holder—105170 points scored on a Threadripper 3990X, by Splave.
The 5995WX, as we mentioned, was subjected to extreme cooling, using liquid-nitrogen. using a Bitspower-made evaporator. The chip was supported by 128 GB of octal-channel DDR4-3200 memory, and an MSI PRO WS WRX80 motherboard. Windows 10 21H2 was the OS of choice. Threadrippers will continue to dominate multi-threaded CPU benchmark leaderboards until Intel can put up a fight with an HEDT variant of its upcoming "Sapphire Rapids" processor.

Surely intel upcoming can go past 5GHz+ easily as it has sunny cove cores from ADL. But still, the waiting is not over for sapphire rapid :(.
Kudos to team red.
Now we have 64 cores 5GHz
No surprised TR out performs EPYC, but then those epyc prolly doesnt have the same instructions as TR does.

Honestly, taking this into account (and nearly three years later), this isn't really impressive...
I still love these absurd overclocking things, because they show air cooled hardware in the distant future
I recall when overclocking to 1GHz was a big deal.... *wipes tears with a floppy disk*
Now running 64 game *servers*..... easy peezy
