Tom’s Hardware Overclock – 5255Mhz

Check out this *secret* site where it’ll show you a cool trick that actually TRIPLES your PC’s performance… Plus tons more!

The Ultimate CPU Overclocking Guide!
An overclock to 5Ghz at a time when such a goal was unimaginable, Toms Hardware produced this clip and ever since its factualness has been much debated. They apparently use a Pentium 4 with ASUS P4C800-E, MSI GeForce FX5950 Ultra, Corsair DDR550 Pro, Liquid Nitrogen for the CPU and an Asetek Vapochill for the Northbridge. But whether or not it actually ever happened it still is a cool movie well worth watching!

  3. AaronNicoli says:

    I have a 3.4 and it struggles to get 3.8 or even 4…

  4. AaronNicoli says:

    Probably will never get 10Ghz, we are looking more at a multi-core future.

  5. AaronNicoli says:

    Sure does, my server room often hits 40+ deg C, when I forget to leave the cooling on :)

    Publicity

    Was that thermal paste enough on cpu to transfer the heat from cpu to heatsink?.

  8. reed2slc says:

    hahaha you have no idea what you are talking about.

    also take your "liquid oxygen" and replace it with Liquid Nitrogen next time.

    I would demend the compound to be at least 50% pure silver.

    You’re not supposed to spill the liquid oxygen onto the processor..

  14. darkmaster010 says:

    wow nice work there. hmm…i think it would be possible for me to overclock my processor to 5Ghz, because mines 3.2Ghz (Pentium 4). nice job but. 5/5

  15. kalasnikov47 says:

    loool in a couple of years they will be useing cpus with 10ghz and normal fans and you guy shave to hook it up to a fridge to get 5ghz :D

  16. mygaffer says:

    Sure you did. What, do you live in the arctic circle? Ambient temp does make a big difference with air cooling.

  17. mygaffer says:

    Why should Tom’s lie?

  18. AaronNicoli says:

    Retard…

  19. darkfall13 says:

    Not unless you could keep a continuous supply of liquid N2 handy as it would continuously evaporate at room temperature.

  20. coreyaustinmiller says:

    thats semiconducting at its best.
    im mad becuz my last computer i tried that on died because it was so cold the processor cracked in half! never ever ever ever EVER!!! use liquid oxygen.
