Brutal Display of Power! to qoute pantera. ok it was 'vulgar' but w/e
But really, Excellent work.
It's very positive to see Intel embrace the enthusiast market, after long time of ignoring them completely.
at all I like the renewed intel much more than a few years ago. all these changes really gave tham a new start. it alsmost seems like 2 different companies.
And I think people should understand how big is this accomplishment. to think the old boring intel would let something like this happen, on it's flagship event, would be unbelievable.
but now it happens and it's huge if you ask me. this whole change in the mentality of such a big company is really great and welcomed.
very brave decision to do something like this onstage and it looks like a clear success. hopefully they keep this route in the future.
Charles that linked thread sure makes me miss my old girl..

Good luck at the conference.

Otellini's keynote this morning focuses on bringing extreme to the mainstream and during his talk about extreme overclocking, he invited Charles Wirth, owner of the renowned extreme overclocker site XtremeSystems.org onto the stage.
On stage, he broke the record for SuperPI 1M, which he achieved in eight seconds, followed by Aquamark 3 and Cinebench 10. He set scores of 273,000 for Aquamark 3 and over 20,000 for Cinebench 10.
We spoke to Charles after the keynote and he said that he's actually hit well over 23,000 in Cinebench 10 in the last few days. He also said that he hasn't hit his chip's maximum core speed yet.
As Wirth was leaving the stage, Otellini joked "call me when you hit 6GHz." Knowing how hard these guys push processors, I wouldn't be surprised if that happens long before the Penryn family launch on November 12th.

Also it is great to see demonstratable results of future cpus, and 10 WR's.....WOW.
I think in the past overclocking was viewed as a troublesome niche by Intel whereas now it is viewed as a great avenue for marketing. I mean being top in all the benchmarks can only be good press. Times have definately changed for the better as far as overclocking is concerned.
Before, overclocking would'nt be advised by company... but now, there's competitions and even chip makers are now marketing their overclockability

It went perfect, 10 world records reset today.
10x reduction in gate leakage = more speed with less volts
we will soon see 6ghz 45nm overclocked parts.
I will post images later today, some I don't have saved on usb drive
The current pi we is 8.40 seconds
294 am3 with iq and no video card overclock, well over 300k tweaked
Ill post more later
where are the screens
