unityofsaints: gold records with AMD Phenom II X6 1055T wPrime

Honestly, Australian overclocker unityofsaints has quite a bit of luck experimenting with old, six-core AMD Phenom II X6 processors.

Last October, he managed to secure his place in the leaderboards for the Phenom II X6 1090T chip with three first-place finishes. Today, he's marked two new records on the younger Phenom II X6 1055T processor:

The first was a gold medal in the processor's model ranking for the wPrime - 32m discipline. The CPU frequency was 5949 MHz, achieving a time of 4 seconds, 125 milliseconds:

The second record is in the same wPrime discipline, but for its more challenging version, wPrime - 1024m. In this instance, unityofsaints evidently couldn't maintain the chip's frequency at the same 5949 MHz, forcing him to experiment further. The final frequency was 5880 MHz, with a result of 2 minutes, 10 seconds, and 625 milliseconds:

In both cases, the processor was cooled with liquid nitrogen, and its operating voltage exceeded 1.800 volts. Remember, such high voltage is extremely dangerous for the silicon without this type of cooling. When using air cooling, it's best to limit it to 1.550 volts (ideally 1.5V).

The Australian's test bench consisted of the following components:
