Default [Neoseeker] Tweaking the TWKR: LN2

Quote:
Back in my previous article, when I took a look at the Phenom II TWKR, I did not have a dewar to transport the liquid nitrogen so I was limited to using dry ice. Even though I had many hours of fun with it, I could not achieve results as good as the others did, since I could not cool the processor low enough. Not only that, but I could not exhibit the true power of the AMD Phenom II TWKR Edition.

Recently, I got an excellent deal on used extreme cooling equipment - including a dewar. I said in my first TWKR article that I would write a little update when it was possible for us to test the TWKR under LN2, so here we are. With 20L of liquid nitrogen we settled down to overclock that little processor sitting in a black aluminum box.

It's funny that c3 965s will probably overclock higher.

Think about a 32nm die-shrink c3 TWKR, 8-9 giggles maybe?
