Overclock World Record of 7.44GHz?

bulldog147 · 5 Oct 2009 at 03:05

I think I got a world record of overclock i7 920 d0 2.66GHz @ 7.44GHz at vcore of 1.216v and managed to unlock multiplier up to x39 from x21 but kept the qpi link and bus speed low to stable it.

Here is my cpu-z validated ID: 748633 @ http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=748633

Bet you all wondering how on earth I did managed it ?

Earlier on I did managed to start off with 5.1GHz here:

Nice one. What cooling? And how did you unlock multi?

CPUz glitch, dodgy 920? No way at 40 degrees C with 1.2v.

Go on upload superpi 1M, should be about 3s

*Hopes it's not a error*

I am trying to push it up to 8Ghz but I think 7.8Ghz is the maximum limit of x41 !!!

Stock cooler?

It's an i7.

@ bulldog

Also, how the hell did you get the 920 multi to 41x?!

It's locked at 20! (well, 21 Turbo). For cooling, did you use the upside down compressed air can trick? =p
