    Have to say ive been getting 3ghz out of my stock 2.2ghz dual core AMD for 4 years now.
    Serious good value for money. only paid £55 for the CPU and the arctic freezer cooler

    come back to my place, I'll show you how to drink tequila.

    Ermm, coming from amd, at this late in the game, kinda pathetic really.

    Madshrimps took a stock intel celeron D 3.2 chip, with a home made nitrogen bong, and got that fker up to 8.1ghz.

    That was back in '09.

    It took amd this long to catch up? pssh

    The Bulldozer chip is old news...yes about 3 years now, right before Intel launched their i-series chips.

    Overclocking in general - Hey kids, let's buy an expensive computer, then add a larger power supply and more fans, perhaps a water cooling setup,
    then we can get the 3.2 processor up to 4.0 and have it run stable ...for about 6 months until the thing craters...

    Hint for overclockers - You want a cpu that runs at 4.2 ghz? Then don't buy one that runs at 3.8 ghz and rearrange your life for that extra 400 mhz

    Just you wait until the layered and real 3 dimensional structures come to mass production... Then these chips will feel like calculator shit.

    Overclocking to me is like buying a Ferrari that goes 180 mph top speed and every day you get in the car you mat it totally to the floor, on every journey, even going to the store

    In a short time that engine will be toast as parts do wear out.......

    I've got an i5 2500k Sandy Bridge quadcore processor and 8 gigs of ram.And I have exactly one program that uses the multi cores...and it's a game
    Otherwise the system runs no faster than my old dual core, 2 gigs of ram XP computer.


    Until the software catches up, there's no point at all in having a pc that is able to do multi-core processing, because the chipset never asks the processor to do it!

    Yeah, I've never understood the point of overclocking. By the time you invest in a better cooling system and PSU, you might as well have just bought the next chip up in speed rating

    And for as long as other components can't match the power of the CPU. The machine runs just as fast as the slowest component afterall.
