"but ryzen" in 3...2...1....

I thought my lights were flickering over here..

Can you actually run a benchmark at least at those speeds? Or is just boot up and have cpu-z validate?

Just buy a 5950x and save yourself the mining farm sized power bill

who gives a shit about liquid nitrogen oc....

Well it took only you to mention that first 😀

When will cpu's hit these speeds without overclocking? 5 years? 10 years?

"just buy a 5950x" 🙄

Hot 😀

Ah yes,
Intel's bulldozer moment
mackintosh
At least someone has found a use for that chip.

there are better ways to improve performance.
number of cores,core to core latency,core to memory latency,cache sizes,ipc improvements, APIs (!).

Somebody whom may break their arm after crystallisation.

most likely never, increasing clocks is not very effective way to boost performance , it doesnt scale well .

It is like saying "who cares about F1 engines", we won't be using ln2 overclocked cpus for our daily tasks, but it is important to explore the limits of actual silicon, and it is kinda fun also

@7ghz it's still slower than stock ryzen!....just had to 😀
cucaulay malkin
I was thinking more like "my ryzen would do 10 points more at 7ghz"

My Ryzen doesn't need a state of the art liquid nitrogen setup in order to sound like it's not garbage compared to its own previous generation 😀

Cool story fangirl.

So nobody even reached over 7ghz yet? Over 7ghz has been done before on Intel mainstream CPU in the past, quite comfortably. Nothing new here.
