Check this crap out... $130 Pentium chip clocked at 2.66ghz. Tom's hardware was able to overclock it to 4.1ghz! Absolutely amazing. http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/05/10/ ... ghz_cores/ And it's dual core. Of course, it needed water cooling to get to 4.1ghz, but christ....show me another chip that can be overclocked by 54%. Anyway, I must say, Intel probably did this by accident, but it's very impressive. |

I might be able to hook you up. Does it have to run for more than a couple seconds? |

From your point of view Satis, is there a necessity for that kind overcloking and speed? |

honestly? No. I don't like to deal with the complexity of water cooling and juggling clock speed vs voltages vs memory speed/FSB etc etc. However, to someone that doesn't mind dealing with that, they can basically buy a $130 chip, a $150 water cooling setup, and then they can overclock it and get the same performance as a $1000 chip. That's a pretty damned good deal, especially to someone that likes overclocking anyway. That's like buying a 4 cylinder engine and being able to outrun a trans am with it. |
