A dream you say? Impossible? Charles Wirth, or "Fugger" as he's known by OCer's around the world, pushes DFI and Intel to the absolute edge of Xtreme, o?nce again bringing the world record back to the US by hitting 7.2GHz. Will it remain stable? Will it boot to Windows? How did he do it? Those answers and more!

BAH.. that news was so yesterday.. (just kidding)

Yeah.. fugger is always beating world records. World record was 6.2 I think..

Your kidding right? It is a photo taken with a camera dude not fake... If it was a screenshot taken of CPU-z or something maybe then it could easily be fake but look at it it is a photo and says the frequency and all the settings looks legit and it is ;)

edit: BTW this has already been posted in Overclocking & PC Modding

You're kidding right?!

That is a photo of a screen and last I checked it is possible to create that screen in an image editing program. Display full screen and snap - voila!

As for the overclock itself. Sure sounds impressive.

dont get me wrong i dont doubt Fugger, but come on guys if this was easily possible wouldnt intel/AMD do it at factory for the ultimate edge over the other?

as his orgininal post on the other forum ill wait for it to boot into windows before being gobsmacked totally

looking good thou  :yes:

you win the retard of the thread award. (just playing :D )

it isn't easily possible, that's what makes it so wowzers. what do you think the problem of bumping up clock speed is? heat, of course. i bet you that if you tried to cool Fugger's oc'ed setup with a conventional heatsink/fan, the cpu will fry faster than your brain can think.

heat is the biggest problem for all components actually, why do you think that intel/amd are shrinking the manufacturing process? on one hand, to lower the heat dissipation, etc etc.

Think i could get DOS games working on that:shifty:y: Those are the shiznit!:p:p

Probably not, seriously though you would have to get a program to slow the CPU it would be too fast for the game this is the case with many older games.

While I admit this is insane and impressive, here is my analogy...

This is like someone taking a Porsche and making it so the speedometer reads it can go up to 800 miles per hour.

You can even start the car, rev the engine in park or neutral, and watch the needle get to 800 while the card is idle. However, if you even dared try to drive it, the engine would seize itself in a matter of seconds.

till after some time working on it, finding solutions it finally gets stable :)

i really hope he would ge ###### stable

:laugh: thats nice (Y) whooo 800MPH :woot: :rofl: As for the overclock :o

i dont get it my friend has his p4 3.6 ghz extreme edition overclocked to 8.4 ghz and its been on for like a month now and its very stable i will be runnin Sisandra benchmark on that soon but how is that he has a higher ghz than all these "world records say"? and no he does'nt use any nitrogen cooling

    • I bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
