[PV5150]

Italian overclocking team ThuG has managed to push an Intel Pentium 631 to the 8000Mhz mark. Read about it in our news article

Wicked sick to say the very least. I was looking at a 7.3ghz Celeron last night and I thought that was impressive as all get out too!

Loverly. P5B ftw

OMG WTF ROFL!!

That is one awesome thing! I wish I could do that!

Why doesn't AMD make a overclockable chip..?

 

[Mr. Popo]

suddenly my 6.2GHz w/661 sounds lame.

If that sounds lame look at me with the crappy 2.7Ghz 3800+ x2.. ?!?!?

You said it brotha!

Man, Netburst is such a historical architecture. I'm proud I owned one.

Why? We'll probably never see 8GHz again, on future architectures. They won't design them with high clocks in mind ever again, like they did with Netburst.

when oh when will cases come preinstalled with liquid nitrogen

these crazy overclocks lol!

Its the perfect union tbh. A board that is capable of insanely high FSB and a chip capable of insanely high speeds.

If only the P5B was around when I had my decent 560 chip.

Well I spose we're almost at the 10GHz that Intel said that Netburst should scale to

the p5b really is the ultimate companion to the pentiums, almost makes me wanna rma mine 4 exchange and test it + p4 on the cascade!

LOL I was just doing back in the SX archives, and found some amusing commentary. It was particularly interesting around post 25.

:ar:

ehem... I mean :wiggle:

lmao, oh man that was a lawng time ago.

YA KNOW WHAT PV, SHH

 

[Mr. Popo]

Even Intel knows that sticking with Netburst was a mistake.

Yeah Cedar Mills can go really high, but it doesn't change the fact that they are LAME.

I had a 661 (when it just came out) and it died, and I'm glad it did (too bad now I'm with a lamer Northwood).

Whats funny is everybody is bashing Intel in that thread but now everybody pretty much HAS Intel. Lols.
