Overclocker l0ud_sil3nc3 used liquid nitrogen and an ASRock board to push a Pentium G7400 to 6363 MHz, claiming the top spot in Geekbench3 - Multi Core.
American overclocking giant l0ud_sil3nc3 has conquered the model-specific ranking for the dual-core, quad-thread Intel Pentium G7400 processor in the Geekbench3 - Multi Core discipline.
The enthusiast used the top-tier ASRock Z690 AQUA OC motherboard, which features an external clock generator. This allows BCLK frequency adjustments on any Intel Alder Lake processor, even those with a locked multiplier. Beyond this unique feature, liquid nitrogen also played a crucial role, cooling both the CPU and the extremely hot DDR5 RAM.
