OK so I'm a bit soft. But I wouldn't be pushing my 5200 past 1.60 even if I could on water letalone air (god damned mobo won't go past about 1.57 despite setting higher) :)Quote:

:rolleyes: please keep intel out of this, it is an AMD topic about an AMD CPU. I'm tired of seeing every AMD thread with posts 'eehh just get conroe' :slap:Quote:

Thats impressive, certainly the best AMD overclock that I have seen on air cooling. That is a golden cpu right there.
Would love to see this on a nice single stage and see what it can really do. Nice chip :)
i woudlnt say that. its stock at 3ghz, im sure others will go higher. its a new windsor revision, we havnt seen many OC results yet. :)Quote:

Maybe saying it was a golden cpu was a bit overboard, I was simply happy to see an X2 at that speed on air. I had honestly expected the 6000+ to get like a 2-300 mhz oc.
this is the same as the people who still bought 130nm newcastle chips versus the gen 1 90nm they clock betterQuote:

oc % might be not as good as with lower models but these cores are surely the best AMD can deliver at this time. nice clocks, would love to see one on phase :D
