World Record for Core i7 CPU Frequency Broken at 5510.09MHz
3. December 2008 by Myke.
ASUS ROG Rampage II Extreme Smashes World Record in CPU Frequency on Latest Intel Platform
The release of the Intel® Core™ i7 has set the overclocking arena abuzz with excitement in anticipation of new world records. Armed with the ASUS ROG Rampage II Extreme motherboard that supports the newest Intel platform, the Japanese overclocking enthusiast duck smashed to the top of the overclocking charts and notched in a world record for Core i7 CPU frequencies. He managed to record an exceptional score of 5510.09 MHz—clearly laying down the gauntlet to future challengers to the throne. A veteran of overclocking CPUs, duck still holds the world’s highest frequency for overclocking a Pentium 4 631 CPU to a staggering 8180.4MHz last year.
The successful breaking of the world record was in no small part thanks to the overclocking-oriented features found on the new Rampage II Extreme motherboard. TweakIt, an easy-to-use joystick-like control on the motherboard, enables overclockers to make real-time changes to their systems’ core frequency, voltage and other parameters—even while the benchmark utility is running. At no point does software come into play, as the tweaking is completely hardware-based. With such hassle-free tweaking, coupled with information like the system frequency relayed to overclockers in real-time via the LCD Poster, changes could be on-the-fly during CPU tests and result in extraordinary benchmark scores.

x86 Turns 30
15. August 2008 by Myke.
Everyone in the IT world that has ever support hardware, built hardware or used it is going to celebrate the 30th birthday of x86 next month. Little did Intel know back in 1978 that they would be birthing the beginning of computers world wide. Without the x86, there is no telling where we would be today.
Happy Birthday x86!
