I hope this is a joke... But in case you're serious, a somewhat recent processor (if it's quad core it's come out at least in the past couple of years) overclocked from 1.8 to 2 is going to yield somewhat of a performance increase. There's no disputing that. However, a P4 Celeron (which is NOT overclockable with his current mobo) is not going to be noticeably faster even if he brought it to 4 ghz, since the Celeron is a crippled P4, and the P4 is grossly outdated by today's standards. This thread isn't about whether or not overclocking does anything (it obviously does), it's whether a laymen can install a liquid nitrogen cooling system (which the answer is no, someone without any experience or knowledge most likely can't). I mean, come one, he's asking how to build a computer. How the hell is he going to install a custom liquid nitrogen system?

That's like me saying "How can I custom fabricate a turbo for my naturally aspirated car and install it?" and then following that question up by asking "How do I change my oil?"

oh thanks, I thought this was a general statement, do you think I can personally overclock to a higher speed ?

But high clock speed are not available on the new processor!

then how can we do our work @ high clock speed!

please say me the way to get high clock speed!

as of now i would not think of such a thing .. first of all with all the new advents in technology now ..with the ssd drives and new generation gpus being offered ..seems it would be a waste .. most hardware you are using right now ...unfortunately will be obsolete ..unless you really are a hardcore fan of the conventional drives

there are a whole new group of processers being tested and soon will be ready for deployment ... looks like the cpu will need to catch up way i see it...

It depends on your cooling setup. If you have the stock heatsink & fan, I wouldn't push it much further than you already have. Simply adding a decent aftermarket heatsink will allow you to push your CPU much further.

Don't encourage him please, LN should be used by professionals only. Not 15 year old kids who don't know what they are doing.

If he thinks he's going to jump right into LN2 cooling without even knowing how to water cool to begin with then all the power to him!

I wish him luck.

How come the threads I start don't get these many replies? Where have I gone wrong?

Well, for starters you're using question marks instead of exclamation marks!

You need to end every sentence, with an exclamation mark! And by every, I mean questions too!

Got it!

Liquid Nitrogen can probably be acquired from a university in your area.

This.

To the OP: Don't forget to buy heavy duty gloves for handling that large steel canister of liquid nitrogen; you'll thank me later.

Pfft, safety equipment isnt necessary. just suck the liquid nitrogen through a tube with your mouth, then spit it out onto the cpu.

Just like Cartman did to get semen for free in a back alley from a guy in the sea people episode of South Park!

    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A new driver is rolling out to Radeon graphics hardware owners, and alongside support for new games, AMD has just made its FSR 4.1 upscaling tech available to an entire generation of its products. Last month, AMD announced it is answering community requests to bring FSR 4.1 to past generations of its Radeon graphics cards. This would be starting with RDNA 3 RX 7000 products. Right on schedule, this is what's rolling out now with the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver containing official support for over 300 games. Following this, AMD is planning to bring out RDNA 2 (RX 6000 series) support for FSR 4.1 sometime in early 2027. As for the games, this Adrenalin 26.6.2 driver is a recommended install for anyone jumping into Ubisoft's upcoming Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced remake or id Software's DOOM: The Dark Ages' Revelations expansion. The two fixed issues in this release are these: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing RoadCraft on Radeon™ RX 7000 series products. Purple screen may be displayed when using an HP Reverb G2 headset with SteamVR on Radeon™ RX 6000 series graphics products. The known issues AMD is still working on are the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon RX 7000 and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. The newly released AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 driver is now available for download from the AMD Software app. Find the official changelog here.

    • Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft admits one of the most crucial Outlook features is currently broken by Sayan Sen Microsoft is making some decent progress when it comes to Windows 11. Recently we have confirmed reports of some rather useful improvements landing in the next version of the OS, 26H2, wherein GPU driver TDR crashes may finally be fixed, plus the company is also allowing users to disable web content on the Search. On the Outlook front though things have not been so rosy. Last month in May we reported several problems affecting basic functionalities on the app. These included a problem where documents would open blank or corrupt themselves. Following that, Quick Steps, a very useful feature, would no longer work correctly, and finally, Microsoft acknowledged a problem wherein images would fail to load up properly inside the email. Microsoft had resolved those bugs later and almost exactly a month after we reported on them, the company has now admitted a new similarly basic issue, this time on Macs. Users recently started noticing that Outlook would no longer display email threads properly as the original message itself was not displayed. An affected user Tsoumpas, C (ngmb) nicely described the problem in a forum post they made on Microsoft's site. They wrote: "Description of the issue: After updating Outlook for Mac [Version 16.110 (26061317)] on 18/6/2026, replying to any email no longer includes the original message in the reply window. Prior to the update, replies correctly contained the original email text below my response. Expected behavior: The original message should be included in the reply, as in previous Outlook versions and according to the configured reply settings. Actual behavior: The reply window contains only a blank composition area (or only my response), with none of the original email text included." Obviously this must be a highly frustrating for users as noted by several in that thread. The post, at the time of writing, has also been upvoted by more than 40 users indicating that is a fairly widespread bug. Thankfully Microsoft seems to have acknowledged the problem right around that time as it opened a new issue on its official website. In the support article, the company recommends switching to Outlook for Mac from the legacy app, where the problem appears to be happening.
