AMD Richland processor sets 8.2GHz record

The Finnish extreme over-clockers “The Stilt” have set a new world record for clock speed. Using the AMD A10-6800K Richland APU, the guys managed to reach 8.2 GHz clock speed.

The AMD flagship chip was mounted on an ASUS F2A85-V Pro board and with the help of liquid nitrogen, the enthusiasts managed to reach a voltage of 2,008 volts and resulted in a core clock speed of 8,000.48MHz with its bus clock reading 126.99MHz.

The Stilt also found out that in an experiment that an x87-fix would increase the performance quite significantly in SuperPi. Meanwhile, the Finnish over-clockers managed to break their own record when they succeeded to hit a clock speed of 8,203.01MHz with a liquid nitrogen cooling system and voltage of 1,968V

The 8.2 GHz clock speed was possible with a multiplier of 63 and 130.21 bus clock. Check out the source link below for the world rankings of the over-clockers league.

That's insane... To think of it, that would be super fun.

Logan should invest in some liquid nitrogen and make an awesome video (with frozen bananas getting shattered?)!

Not surprising, I've heard from quite a few websites that these CPU cores are able to reach 4.9GHz-5.0GHz with AIO loop cooling.

4

Still can't run Medium settings.

5

Can with a crossfired and overclocked HD 7750

6

Quite possible at 720p

 

 

 

:P

Not on its own.

You will be able to buy a Athlon X4 760K very soon (A A10 6800K Richland APU with a disabled intergrated video) for a lot cheaper.

Makeing it a very afordable quad core for budget builds

People who went with A10 5800K and a gfx card would've been way better off with a 750k.

this is official right

Yes that's ofical but the cpu has disabled cores its only running as a dual core (kind of pointless if you have to disable most of its cores)
