Records broken again
This time they got the 7995x up to 4.8ghz all core with its 96 cores, sipping 980watts and producing a score of 161k
That's an extra 61% performance from overclocking Threadripper. If only desktops CPUs could overclock like that..

AMD’s $10K Threadripper PRO rips through world records An expensive attempt with impressive results. At the Threadripper 7000 launch event for the media, AMD did a short overclocking session where their top-of-the-line CPU broke many world records.

Never seen R23 finish so fast lol
This message comes up in all BIOSes and i believe with Ryzen Master software should you enter the AMD overclocking section and modify any of the settings. This includes turning PBO on. I am not sure what it does but it sets some sort of switch on the CPU (Possibly efuse or something along those lines) which can be identified when the CPU is sent back under warranty to AMD. I guess we will have to see if anyone gets the RMA on a several thousand pound CPU rejected because of overclocking, only time will tell.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bei_2NNmvLs one of our OC guys got one.

Do be warned if you plan to play around with one:

but no manufacturer has implemented such a mechanism for recording the overclocking. I have to wonder if its even true
AMD is known for having these fuses, locking the CPU to - say - HP systems. That said, I have PBO enabled on my Ryzen 5 7700 and got no such message when I set it in the BIOS; I haven't tried running Ryzen Master yet.
In the case of the lenovo amd machines the vendor locking fuse is blown following a bios level promptWhen I googled e fusing, it seemed to indicate the data was pre populated during production. For example if you use an e fuse to store a MAC address, it's fused on during manufacturing. How do they do the fusing after production while the chip is inside a PC?

When you buy 2nd hand these days you unfortunately have to assume it has no warranty - most are not transferable even if you have the original receipt.That's really alarming. I wonder how long until consumer ryzen parts have these fuses. And when someone buys a second hand cpu they have no way of knowing it has no warranty due to xyz fusing from the previous owner
1800W! FFS!
