Core i7-3770K Cracks 6.616 GHz

[dragomirc]

Too bad LN2 was used for cooling. I'm interested to see water cooled CPU overclock.
Core voltage is only 1.056V.

Intel's upcoming Core "Ivy Bridge" processors for overclockers, namely the Core i7-3770K, and Core i5-3570K, feature multiplier values previously unavailable for Core "Sandy Bridge" series.

Chinese proverclocker x-powerx800pro scraped 6.616 GHz utilizing a base clock multiplier value of 63.0x, a clock speed of 6584.86 MHz (104.52 x 63) was validated using the same setup.

These clock speeds were backed by core voltages such as 1.056V, and cooled by extreme cooling. The test-bench included a GIGABYTE Z77X-UD5H, 2x 2 GB G.Skill DDR3-2133 MHz memory, and Corsair AX1200W PSU.

These clock speeds were found to be Pi-stable, with 6.511 GHz yielding SuperPi 1M timing of 5.585s.

That's not core voltage. CPU-Z reads VCCIO voltage and reports it as VCORE on Gigabyte boards. These chips run very hot and will not out clock Sandy's on air or water but, they're slightly faster clock for clock though.

Nice! Price?

Thanks QD.

Only problem is they used only one logical core lets see them do that with all 4 active.

They could use a half core and oc over 10Ghz

Interesting. Wonder what the highest 4 module overclock is. Maybe only like 6.5GHz, lol.

I bet you the i7 is still faster lol

Ivy has already been benched at over 7Ghz and set some very impressive records.

Haha, QFT.
