Austrian overclocker TAGG is back at it, exploring the overclocking potential and benchmarking classic LGA 775 processors. This time, the enthusiast was determined to beat the scores of Germany's Digg_de and Russia's TerraRaptor, and he pulled it off.
Armed with a phase-change cooling system, TAGG pushed his Intel Celeron 430 to an impressive 4949 MHz. This high clock speed secured him the top spots in the CPU's rankings for both SuperPi - 1M and SuperPi - 32M:
Benchmark: | Score: | CPU clock: |
13sec 390ms | 4949 MHz | |
10min 18sec 609ms | 4949 MHz |
The overclocker's test bench consisted of the following components:
Motherboard: ASUS Rampage Extreme;
RAM: two 2GB modules of Corsair Dominator GT with CL6.0 7-6-20 1T timings;
Power supply: 850W SuperNOVA G2;
