AMD Bulldozer reaches 8.43 Ghz on liquid Helium

[v0dka]

Please read what I typed before you tell me to get over it. In the OC community, even the lack I know of it understands how records are run. I am just saying for a corporation like Guinness Book of World Records to acknowledge it as an 8-core processor OC'd at this speed is completely false and misleading to the general public.
If you can't comprehend that, then you need to go back to school and get edumacated( and yes this was mis-spelled on purpose strawboy).

It's an 8 core processor.

With 3 modules disabled.

Don't be mad.

like he said it is standard practice. they were doing it on the 980X's (for super pi) until they randomly started dying after being switched to single core mode.

quit trying to downplay a mhz achievement, i won't be surprised if you don't get your access removed from the news section for trying to disquise calling someone stupid. nice try at it but you failed. go get yourself educated and then come back when you understand how certain records are competed and why they do the tweaks they do.

Edumacated is misspelled? I thought it was slang...

Anyway I don't really care what you call me and if you got upset about the "get over it" comment I do apologize but you are probably intelligent enough to realize that everyone reading this forum already know what MHz achievements means and that most, to some extent, agree with you when labeling MHz to mean fastest is a bad idea.

With this in context your entry in the thread is read more like a whine than anything meaningful.

Also this broke an existing record entry in Guinness which means they followed the previous records classification and I don't see any purpose in raising discussions about Guinness record classifications (which is wildly disputed all the time) in the context of this thread.

Anyway this whole post and this discussion is going off topic, I would probably have deleted it if I had admin rights.

If anyone doesn't like that AMD holds the record now, please go jump off either Sandy or Ivy Bridge :P

We've had enough plonkers come and try to demean something which AMD achieved.

Now tifosi goes back eagerly wait for NDA to end on both HD7xxx and BD.

any rumour of when the NDA is?

[Lanek]

In general NDA are lift when the product is released, some infos can be authorised to be released a bit early, but give a date or a rumored lift of NDA is like launch a new rumor about the release date... some say release is around mid october for BD and some infos should surface about SI before the end of the month.. ( i precise, this is only pure rumor, you know the thing who are called source on some hardware site : - "someone tell me that someone have heard someone who was know someone who have said .... " )

[undone]

any rumour of when the NDA is?

1.Sep.19th or before Oct.
2.till Oct.

and me GUESS. till Nov. I think the final silicon haven't been shipped yet.

If final havent shipped yet, what have they been overclocking on at this event, final should be better then :/

ibuypower announced system with BD. I think they're in possession of some "final" chips, given they are featuring a box purportedly with BD to be sold.
Erm, no dates with me... not for HD7xxx or BD

[Movieman]

Lets settle this issue on the cpu speed:
What Guinness listed is "max frequency on a processor" and thats what the submission was for.
I know, I was the witness who filled out the Guinness form.
They needed someone who wasn't in the employ of AMD or involved in the overclocking and I fit the bill as they say.
There may have been others but I'm not sure on that.
MANY were present when the 8429MHz speed was achieved, app 30 people.

[verndewd]

while you're at it, think of remounting the LHe container

not inpossible

[64NOMIS]

CHew: do u think, after 1/2 year in future, can FX broke 9 GHz? I think, 8.5 GHz+ will be about next months, but 9....?

FlanK3r,

Finally, someone is asking the right question!

And of course, it is Flank3r!

We were beginning to wonder if we had hit a wall and I think we are all a bit shocked and excited to have made it as far as we did.

Unfortunately, I was not able to properly capture the uncertainty that had descended on the entire team in the moments up to the stunning record-breaking run.

Scaling, cold, bios, chips, mounts, methods, our sanity were all in question at 1PM on August 31st. And by 5PM, our faith in the Gods of Overclocking was restored.

9GHz, sure, why not. We've already done the impossible. Bring it on. Flank3r, I'll make sure you get a stab at it!

[FlanK3r]

Heh Simon, Il only a boy with only aircooling and sometimes with LN2 . But never say never, maybe Il be lucky

Wait a sec...I think this achievement is completely awesome from an overclocking standpoint. i was simply stating that a corporation like Guinness should probably state a record for the 'average joe'

Now I was making a stab back with the edumacated line based off your comment, so I will retract it and say we both made our points clear in that aspect of bickering


To v0dka, really man, where do I state I am mad?

To stangracin3, did you not read what I posted? I said I understand it is standard practice in the OC community, not in the real world. Please do not try to twist words around.

[tbone8ty]

just curious what's i7 2600 highest with ln2 or liq helium?

[Dumo]

just curious what's i7 2600 highest with ln2 or liq helium?

6044.3Mhz....http://hwbot.org/submission/2177360_...00k_6044.3_mhz

[Pestilence]

Sandy bridge is multiplier limited to 57 and the record is alittle over 6ghz

[Dumo]

Imo, SB already earned its "6 months" cycle on the top.

Now its the time for new cpu to take the limelight. Lol

[m411b]

OMG, that is a 2! Look at the actual 7 right above the 2 and compare! Whats this mean chew*? Default vcore?
Sorry if I'm behind the time with this, but just noticed and haven't yet read all 6 pages!

good to see ya around! i made a similar post the other day regarding process improvements & if we see similar improvements on 32nm as we did on 45nm, who knows, why stop at 9ghz, shoot for the stars, maybe 10ghz will be taken w/ 32nm! 45nm went from ~6ghz -> 7.3ghz+ so if 32nm is already at 8.4ghz

I will refrase that;
Don't hate the player - hate the game

[Lanek]

59 with the gigaybte "special " bios ....

[Sparky]

I'm waiting for the day that a CPU hits 10 GHz
