Unlocked CPU multiplier facilitates its overclock, since the resulting clock frequency is achieved without an increase in the so-called base rate. For this reason, the records of processors with a limited increase in the multiplier are achieved with the limit values of the base rate. For example, the German enthusiast Der8auer during overclocking event in France was able to overclock the Core i5-540 dual-core processor to 292 MHz bus, a value of 23x multiplier reaching a frequency 6716 MHz. In the test wPrime 32M processor allowed to take first place among the dual-core models with the result of 6,999 seconds.
To cool the CPU used tank of liquid nitrogen Beast, developed by the author of the experiment, and one of the keys to success is the new thermal grease Kryonaut brand Thermal Grizzly.
Along the enthusiast showed the best result for dual-core processors in wPrime 1024M, performing the test in 3 minutes 46.531 seconds at a frequency of 6625 MHz . In the test, Cinebench R15 CPU ranked third among the dual-core models with the result of 485 points at a frequency of 6578 MHz. Related Products :
