OC Team Italy sets a new world record at 8GHz!
Written by Andreas G 22 January 2007 17:02
We reported a while back about how OC Team Italy had unpacked it golden Pentium 4 631 to throw some liquid nitrogen on it. With a non-modified ASUS P5B motherboard they managed to reach a whopping 7520MHz, but pointed out that the motherboard made it impossible to go any further. Now that they have once again mounted the copper pipe and made the necessary voltage modifications, the liquid nitrogen once again did its thing and made it possible for them to finally reach 8000MHz! We bow and congratulate them for this historical achievement and we're eager to see if this will remain the record or if more will bring out their Pentium 4s

Let me guess, they still get the Blue Screen of Doom? :p

A lot faster!
And they still can't run Windows Vista, right?
You really don't need that kind of processing power, unless, say, you wanted to run 5 or 6 copies of Half Life 2 all at the same time on the same computer (if that's even possible.)

That kind of power isn't a matter of need. It's a matter of want.

See there? You're thinkin' with your brain and not your testicles. And where's
that gonna get you in life, huh?
This is the nerd version of the monster truck. The question is not "why?" but rather "how far before it explodes?"

Indubitably.
