Attempt to break a WR at the Brazillian Campus Party '08

[doompc]

Hello guys, I'd like to tell you what we've done during the Campus Party here at Brasil. Building the E.B.Over (Equipe Brasileira de Overclockers, or B.T.O. Brazillian Team of Overclockers): Xandelly, Rongrego and me (Alexandre Ziebert). We were asked to attempt to break a overclocking world record. We have a sponsor, a full cooper container, lots of dry ice and LN2 :D

Our wish list:
CPU: Core 2 Extreme QX9650
MoBo: Asus Maximus Formula
RAM: 2x Corsair Dominator DDR2-1066
PSU: Corsair HX 520w

After lots of blue screens and the croud cheering like it was a soccer game we've got the QX9650 @ 5040 MHz on dry ice. SuperPI 1M in 9.219s:

And a full run of nuclearus v.1 at 4932MHz: 26114 marks
I know there is the v.2, but if no other shows up, it's the WR :D

I'm the guy at the right.
PS: Don't ask me about the "orange floating jacket" that wasn't my idea...

I think 5GHz is kinda low for the QX9650 on Dry Ice, but the :banana::banana: VRM on the Maximus become unstable over 1.7v (CPU Overvoltage Error), and no vmods were allowed.

Lesson learned: Next time, get a DFI!
