Default [PC Per] 5 GHZ+ Phenom II Overclock on Dry Ice

Neat article on the Phenom II and the potential overhead room it may have.
Anytime I see dry ice being used I get excited...




Quote:
Today AMD was showing off its upcoming desktop Phenom II processor to a handful of journalists, and one of the main topics of the presentation is the "headroom" that AMD is building into the Phenom II processor.

As we all know, the Phenom II will be AMD's second 45 nm part (the first is officially the Shanghai server part) that is scheduled to hit Q1 09. This heavily redesigned processor based on the Phenom architecture has already showed some significant per clock performance gains over the older Barcelona product, and AMD considers this to be their best design ever in terms of performance, functionality, and eventual clockspeed. The first desktop products are expected to hit 3 GHz at the top end, but AMD has been hinting that the Phenom IIs can do a lot more in the hands of an enthusiast.

I really hope AMD is able to get some ground back like they did in the GPU market. I always take stories like the one linked with a grain of salt because putting a chip, which potentially could be hand-picked, under such extreme cooling and voltages is not a testament to how it's going to perform for me and you. When reviews start coming out with a new platform I always look to see what kind of results people on forums are getting before I make the move to migrate.
