Bonus material - The Assistant helping out
While Beaux is testing stability and seeks maximum overclocks at stage three, Liquid Nitrogen, six LN2 pots are used per session depending on what the goal is. Beaux reported back that he was using roughly 40 liters of Liquid Nitrogen PER HOUR! So he had to get himself an assistant to help him pour all the LN2.
The processors (Six-core Xeon X5680) are now overclocked to a CPU frequency of 5500 MHz and we have four GeForce GTX 480 cards also LN2 cooled and overclocked to 1052 MHz on the core, 2103 MHz on the shaders. We have some spiffy Corsair memory running at 2200 MHz.
Have a look at a couple of photos we took of Beaux's assistant. And remember, this article is all about the hardware!
