AMD Bulldozer CPU Frequency Sets World Record: 8.429Mhz!

AMD's latest desktop processors (Bulldozer), has been long awaited fans of AMD processors as well as various PC Enthusiast. Unfortunately with such a strict NDA, until now we did not find very much information about him, particularly about the overclockability of this processor. But only a few moments ago, the mystery about the AMD Bulldozer overclockability of this began to unfold when a few extreme overclockers AMD: macci, chew *, 64NOMIS, AJS, and then gathered Hardman Bulldozer overclock AMD FX-8150 up to 8429 Mhz!

Achievement of high CPU clock is not foreign to AMD, because AMD processors are generally extreme overclock using LN2 cooling usually are able to produce exceptional clockspeed. (My friend JagatReview've tried it with AMD Phenom X2 BE-555 to reach 6.6Ghz clock) . There are also some previous AMD processors like the Phenom X4 II BE 955 and 965 could reach 7 GHz clock with LN2 cooling. However Clock 8.4 GHz AMD Bulldozer achieved by this time truly remarkable, because this is the first time through the boundaries of 8 GHz AMD who had only achieved an Intel Pentium 4 / Celeron Cedar Mill.


The AMD FX-8150 which passed the speed of 8.4Ghz is cooled using a cooling of the more extreme of the Liquid Helium Liquid Nitrogen, the temperature is lower than -230 C (LN2 'only'-196C). Here's a video of AMD when the record-breaking takes place:

With the remarkable results of this extreme, it seems AMD Bulldozer will be a 'toy' new interest to overclocking fans and especially the extreme overclockers.
