Splave scores another record with the Radeon HD 5870

Just a few days ago, we reported that well-known American overclocker Splave set two records with the Radeon HD 5870, a graphics card that was once very popular.

At the time, I noted that this achievement was largely due to the overclocked Intel Core i9-10900K rather than the pushed HD 5870 itself. Back then, the CPU was only cooled by an AIO, reaching a relatively low 5300MHz.

Today, however, the American opted for his usual liquid nitrogen pot, pushing the Core i9-10900K chip to a more impressive 7200MHz. The Radeon HD 5870 graphics card, also chilled by an LN2 pot, ran at a core frequency of 1575MHz and 5400MHz for its GDDR5 VRAM.

With the CPU and graphics card pushed to these extremes, Splave completed the 3DMark 2003 benchmark, scoring 138,091 points:

The overclocker's test bench included these components:

• Motherboard — ASRock Z490 Aqua

• Thermal Paste — Thermal Grizzly Kryo LHE

• RAM — G.SKILL neo 3800c14

• Power Supply — Enermax Maxtytan 1250W

And this is what it looked like:
