RAUF SET THE RECORD IN the 3DMARK with GEFORCE RTX 3090, AND SHAR00750 BECAME FIRST IN THE RYZEN 5 5600X rank

Today, two overclockers at once managed to distinguish themselves with very good records: Swedish enthusiast Rauf climbed to the top of the rank of the GeForce RTX 3090 video card in the 3DMark – Time Spy Extreme discipline, and his Israeli colleague shar00750 became the first in the rank of the Ryzen 5 5600X processor in the Geekbench3 – Multi Core discipline.

But first things first.

To reach first place in the 3DMark, Rauf used an Intel Xeon W-3175X chip overclocked to 4900MHz (+58.06% to the base frequency) and an ultimate version of the RTX 3090 video card from GALAX, model GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 HOF OC Lab Edition (at the time of writing of this article, this product is available in only a few stores, and its price starts at $ 4000).

The card was cooled with liquid nitrogen, which allowed him to overclock the GA102 GPU up to 2820MHz (+102.15% to the base) and GDDR6X video memory up to 21808MHz (+11.81%), and then complete the 3DMark – Time Spy Extreme benchmark with a result of 14582 points:

The enthusiast’s test setup consisted of the following components:

• Processor – Intel Xeon W-3175X@4900MHz;
• Motherboard – ASUS ROG Dominus Extreme (BIOS version – 0409);
• RAM – 12 x 8 GB GALAX Hall of Fame DDR4;
• Video card – GALAX GeForce RTX 3090 HOF OC Lab Edition;
• SSD – Samsung 840 120GB;
• Power supply – Super Flower 8 Pack Edition 2000W.

And it looked like this:

The Israeli shar00750 chose a cheaper and safer option for his experiments, if one can say so at all. Nevertheless, the loss of even such a scarce chip as the 5600X cannot be compared with the potential loss of the RTX 3090 video card (experiments with liquid nitrogen and high voltages often lead to the failure of their CPU and GPU).

But let’s get back to the result. To set a record in the Ryzen 5 5600X rank, shar00750 overclocked the processor to 6000MHz and was able to successfully complete the Geekbench3 – Multi Core benchmark with 48905 points:

The overclocker’s test setup consisted of the following components:

• Processor – Ryzen 5 5600X@6000MHz;
• Motherboard – GIGABYTE X570 AORUS MASTER (BIOS version – T60);
• Video card – GeForce GT 1030.

And it looked like this:
