The most successful overclocking result for the dual core processor core 2 Duo was registered during May this year, when Japanese overclockers increased the processor frequency ( core 2 Duo e6700 ) (2.66 GHz) to 5751 MHz with liquid nitrogen and vcore voltage 1.896 v. Let us note that both core where active in this overclock .
Switching off several cores or on core in this case will allow to improve the overclock results . So , the known Swedish overclocker elmor, was able to register a new overclock record in CPU- Z data base . In this case the Dual core processor core 2 Extreme x6800 (2.93 GHz) was used with more than 2.0 v and liquid nitrogen cooling : This allowed to reach the frequency 5854 MHz. The motherboard used was asus P5W64 WS pro and it was subjected to serious modifications, as video card we find the good old S3 Trio64+ with PCI interface .
Increase by 100 MHz in comparison with the previous record was possible due to the switching off of one core.
Another step for the processors core 2 Duo to reach the 6.0 GHz. In any case this will be doable with 45 nm intel processors .
