Yeah, we've seen other mad scientists take way more antiquated chips to higher figures on the GHz scale, but can that cryogenically cooled P4 handle all those SSE4.1 instructions? The latest feat of overclocking prowess comes to us courtesy of K|ngp|n, who has apparently taken Skulltrail beyond the 6GHz mark. You'll also notice the 1,716MHz FSB (!!!) and the fact that it's sizzling along at 1.953-volts -- but hey, no one said running Crysis would be easy, right?

I've been a "darkside" fan since th first C2Ds. I'd like to see AMD do better... maybe in 5 years they'll catch up. ;)

If I had spent the money to get a chip such as that one, I would not be trying to turn it into an egg cooker...gee...talker. ;)
