Generational change in the world of computer hardware happens about once a year.
Despite advanced age, by the standards of the industry, individual copies of vintage processors are fully capable to make records. Enthusiast der8auer, used a sample of the Core 2 Duo E8600 (3.33 GHz). Overclockers managed to raise the frequency of the processor to 6.22 GHz and make 4572.68 points in the benchmark HwBot Prime.
Interestingly, the result is the best among those of the Core 2 Duo E8600, but record for dual-core processors der8auer lacked only by 0.07 points. The Core 2 Duo E8600 can overclock up to higher frequencies, so der8auer soon certainly will be able to improve this achievement. Related Products :
