Pentium 4 Oveclocked To 6.3GHz

INTEL FAILED miserably to deliver a 4GHz Pentium 4 but overclockers just never say die. Probably because they don't have to spend $2 billion on a fab.

We got this nice link where you can see that if you are using home built compressors you can ###### a microprocessor up just as much as you want Chap that calls himself Fugger manage to do this on DFI 875P-T motherboard using 3.6 GHz P4, Centon Advanced DDR TCCD, OCZ DDR Booster. [Didn't Charlie write this one last week, Fudo? Ed.]

He cooled this rug with Chilly1 three stage CPU cascade.

I guess that guys at DFI did a good job with their motherboard and this OCZ DDR booster has to be a nice thing since all of the serious overclockers are using it.

So even Intel stopped the megahertz chase there is a big community that hasn?t.

Yeah that's insane. I heard he fried the system after a few days though. It happened after he rebuilt his HD. Fortunatly it was only the OCZ Booster that cooked. But you have to see the condenser he has hooked up the that board to keep the sucker cool!!! :omg: :omg: :omg: The thing looks sick and takes up half the room!

Props though to him, to bad it takes so much work to keep a machine running like that.

isnt this old news? and it wasnt bench stable at that speed or is this another 6ghz+ landmark?

This just happened earlier this month. I'm not sure if he has it up and running again or not. Supposedly he did get a "true" clocking over 6Mhz. I think he had to do something like put a PCI video card in to do it though.

Hes using a phasechange cooling setup i think they said like 3 phasechange systems in one big one, but i could be wrong. Sure its an amazing overclock but it isnt practicle for everyday use. Yes i know its just so he can say i hit 6.3ghz but id rather say i hit 4.5ghz and can game on it daily. Im sure a few of you also are like this also. But all and all thats an amazing overclock.
