E8600 does 5GHZ on air

[helmutcheese]

I realize that of course it will have to take less volts than a 65nm, thanks for the numbers

I just remember quite a few people talking about ~1.5v being a huge problem in the beginning, not because of temps but because of permanent damage at that point, and really i have had insane volts through 65nm chips that were only limited by the temperatures.

Only limited by the Temp's for a short while, eventually Electrical Migration would degrade or kill the 65nm CPU, on Good Air anything more than 1.65v IMO is asking for trouble.

Hahaha, that heatsink looks like a chicken flapping its wings :O Absolutely hilarious.

I believe that's the ZEROtherm Butterfly Model.

oOo. Now all you need is an app that needs 5ghz to run. -_-

FSX

Has nothing to do with any APP needing X GHZ to run, that makes ZERO sense.

It will have to do with an APP like Video Encoders running faster with more MHZ or/and More Cores.

I did 5GHz on air too,

with LIVE PICTURES.

6Ghz on LN2

Now they just need to get a quad to 6GHz

very impressive

i'm jeleous lol i would love a new CPU to overclock, nevermind one whichgoes to 5Ghz.
