WHO HAS THE BEST OVERCLOCK

What to do
1- Get a screenshot with prime 95, cpu-z and anything else you want to show off
2- upload to imgar or similar
3- Post on in a reply with any other info
4- Do your gpu as well if you like

Here is mine for example

Intel i3 540 overclocked to 4.20ghz

Post Yours Below
Enjoy

Tbh just tell your specs if you cant be bothered

late cba 2 do anything more

Core i5-750 @ 4GHz

Stock is 2.66GHz, so that's a 1.34GHz OC, or 50% over stock.

Some of the i5-2500K/i7-2600K crowd will out-do this though.

FX8120 @4ghz with no overclock using turbo
Should I overclock?

I had my old Phenom II x4 955BE at 4.5Ghz once

Core i7-3820 @ 5.125GHz (125x41).

I'll edit with CanardPC Valid URL later today.

For now though, I have a 5GHz (or 4.995GHz if you want to get pedantic about BCLK) link in my sig.

I prefer to think of it as being accurate

I prefer to think of you as an expletive

But just for you I'll put up a "properly" over 5GHz link tonight.

EDIT: If we are defining "best overclock" by a % of original clock speed though, my "best" has to be my old E2140.

103% overclock.

I think you mean precise. 5.00Ghz is correct to 3 significant figures. 4.995Ghz correct to 4 s.f. - both accurate, one is more precise!

Well no, as it fluctuated between 124.75MHz and 125.5MHz BCLK, it just so happened that when it validated it fluctuated down.

I guess that's down to the clockgen on the board.

Has to be my old Opteron 144 @ 2.85Ghz, loved that chip!

Fair enough. I meant more that when you said 5Ghz that's probably not inaccurate [like Surveyor said], it just could be more precise - still I try not to be pedantic so I'll stop... I'm probably wrong anyway.

Nice overclock on that E2140 by the way!

Prime95 running for 10 seconds is not an indication of a stable overclock :eek:

lol

Nope, agreed. But it is a good enough example of temperatures.
