I dont think ill be on here again for a whyle :P

Its just me and the guys from Japan with there NL2 and Dry ice

Highest prommy overclock :D

Sorry for showing off

You da man, Holst! Oowee, I'd love to see side by side benches of a Barton running at 3 Ghz and a P4 3 Ghz processor. Can you say "slink on home Intel?"

Sure, the fast P4's Memory bandwidth would reach from Liverpool to London. That may be the only BM where the Barton @3 Ghz falls behind.

Awesome.:thumbsup:

Excuse my ignorance but whats LN2 cooling ??

Liquid nitrogen on your CPU :O

Well done Holst!

That overclock is just plain obnoxious, Holst.

I like it. :thumbsup:

Good show old chap! :thumbsup:

Impressive so many Epox boards with those high clocks. :)

Nice !!
Those Japanese dudes probably just start the PC, boot up, take a screenshot and that's about all the stability they get.

Sounds expensive?

LN2 cooling is actually cheapbut only lasts for a few hours of benching so its not permanent. If you wana really push your processor for a few hours to get a good 3dmark score LN2 is the way to do it.

Prommie is long term, something that can be on there al lthe time. Not saying that prometia isnt good, its awesome.

Holst, congrats! :thumbsup: :cool: have a drink :drink:

LN2 is defintely cheaper, yoiu ust tend to kill things when you use it....

Most of the top guys at 3dmark 2003/2001 kill there graphics cards after a few runs with big memory overclocks.

This CPU should run a high clock or a long time, ATM im running 2.8gig at 1.925v stable, shame this rev 2 8rda wont ive me any more :(

awsome,
 

Just curious, what cpu are you using? Have you done the r404 mod to the prommie? Im running a 2800+ T-B on a prommie but 2800 stable puts me at 2.05v For gaming I ussually run at 13.5x200 (2.7ghz) @ 1.95v just to prolong the cpu's life a little. Yesterday I ran a server for ut2k3 at my lan party for 11 hours at 12.5x224 (2.8ghz)@ 2.05 but anything lower on the voltage would kill it. One other thing is that I cant seem to get this chip over 2.075v regardless of frequency. Sound like the cpu has hit its limit? whats your take on this one????

Were not worthy :D
