If you don't believe in overclocking as a sport, you don't believe in motorsport.

I do believe it's a sport....I just like rules to go along with my sports
Edit: oh wait this would just be another class right? like super mods

There are rules. You have to use computer parts.

And this is the super mod class right? so you can use whatever else you need no restrictions

Think of it as a drag car built without class in mind, but just to go faster than anyone else.

It doesn't take a sober man to admit he was wrong, I guess I was wrong to some degree, though i will still be absolutely thrilled to join a forum with the first guy who does it "sustained"

Well yeah, that would be way more amazing, of course. It would be like building that drag car, AND making it as reliable and usable as a stock car.

You Know I do like a good old competition here myself......How about this.......
I will through paypal put in the trust of the TPU staff $20 Towards the first sustained 7ghz OC'ed pc, by sustained I mean running steady with no failures for 14 days verified!
THINK we can make this happen!!!
TPU comes up with the rules and verifies
Members put up the prize!!
Can we make this happen
I'll pay now if we can, let the pot build

More like building a drag car, and driving it at track speeds on the streets and highways.

No, not really. The computer at 7Ghz isn't going full out the whole time it's on either. It's mostly idle for cpu-z verifications.

A drag car is not exactly a perfect analogy, obviously. lol.

14 days? Hmm let's see, we'll need a 1600 litre tank of liquid nitrogen, a processor made with silver pins/bumps, and a motherboard made with space-grade components (mild EMI resistant components, 100% ML capacitors, a dozen-layered PCB....the list goes on.... feel free to expand it.

24hrs might be doable, provided they can keep the board from freezing. Still gonna take a shiz load of liquid helium. lol.

I'm serious and very curious to see it done WHY not AT least I said I would put up the money maybe not a lot but a start

Well do you believe it's a sport, The best part of sports is watching the seemingly imposable happen right? so come on lets see if we can make this happen!!
