The Intel Core i9-7900X was overclocked to over 6 GHz

The SOFOS1990 user managed to break many HWBOT records thanks to the platform based on Intel Core i9-7900X. Of course, liquid nitrogen was also used for this. He managed to reach the speed of 6.016 GHz, which resulted in obtaining 12189.52 points in the benchmark.

The obtained result is the highest for a 10-core processor and for a platform consisting of just one cpu. In his platform, the user also had G.Skill Trident Z memory, a 120 GB Neutron SSD disk, a Gigabyte X299 SOC Champion board and a Corsair AX 1500i power supply. The frequency of 6016 MHz was achieved with the vCore voltage of 1.6 V. This is a huge value that can damage the cpu, however, liquid nitrogen allowed to stabilize the processor. The temperatures that prevailed then were around -110 ° C.

This is certainly not the final word on the i9-7900X. The platform has a huge potential for breaking records, which is only just being discovered. So I hope that in the near future I will have the pleasure of writing you about the next broken world records.
