A certain overclocker achieved a feat using the Intel (Intel) processor 14 years ago.According to TechSpot, HWBOT.ORG user IvanQu0208 has 347, a single core / single -red processor Celeron D 347 released at the end of 2006.06GHz base frequency 8.It was clocked up to 36GHz.
For comparison, the 10-generation processor "Core i 9-10900 K" for Intel's desktop has 10 cores / 20 threads, and the base clock is 3..Up to 5 at 7GHz.7 GHz boost clock 7.Hwbot and CPU-Z OC World Records have been able to clock up to 71GHz.
In order to operate the CPU much faster than the rating, it is necessary to keep it low.An eager overclocking enthusiast is cooled by flowing liquid nitrogen or surrounded by liquid nitrogen blocks to cool the CPU.Without such extreme cooling, the speed exceeding 8GHz cannot be achieved.When the CPU exceeds the maximum operating temperature, the motherboard generally turns off the PC from the perspective of the fail -safe.This further enhances the fact that this overclocking can be realized 14 years ago.
But 8.The speed of 36GHz is not the fastest speed recorded so far.Guinness World record of the highest CPU clock rate achieved in 2014 8.72GHz has achieved an AMD employee using AMD Piledriver-based FX-8370 processors at the headquarters in Austin, Texas.Since the processor has just been released, it is considerably newer than Celeron D 347, and the number of core and threads is large.According to the CPU-Z OC World Records, which can be submitted and verified by the user, the fastest in history is 8 by AMD's FX-8350 processor..It is 8GHz.
At the time of its release, Celeron D 347 became popular among overclockers because of ease of overclocking.Random impurities contained in silicon can affect overclocking performance, but Celeron D 347 seems to have been particularly excellent.Of course, you can enjoy some overclocks enough without relying on such liquid nitrogen!
