PCPER.com: 5 GHZ+ Phenom II Overclock on Dry Ice, 6Ghz on LN2

[informal]

These are pics of what? Running at what speed? Please numbers and confirmation, not a picture with a 790FX mobo with a dice pot on it

And under the dice pot is what,a Yorkfield "screwdrivered"/"hammered" in a AM2+ board?

Seriously,this event actually DID happen.No matter how unbelievable it looks like,chips were running at those clocks,temps were low as reported on air cooled systems etc.
What is left to be seen however is how retail ones will clock.All indications are they will clock the same or even better than this(since this is still not retail stepping).

ooh ooh who have you been talking to

LOL

AMD has kept the logo for the Dragon platform very quiet lately, but they recently posted pictures of a banner online that clearly shows the logo. For those that don't know about the Dragon platform it consists of a processor, motherboard chipset and graphics card that have been tuned to give you a better user experience. To be more specific the Dragon platform is a combination of an AMD Phenom II X4 processor, Radeon 4800 Graphics cards and an AMD 7 series chipset based motherboard. This platform is an update of the Spider platform that AMD launched a year ago to the month. The AMD Phenom II X4 processor is built using AMD's new 45nm process technology and as a result has 30-50% better power consumption and higher clock frequencies. If you haven't heard about the clock frequency improvements yet be sure to check out this article we posted yesterday afternoon.
