I was messing around tonight with my 555 X2 unlocked to an X4, and I opened CPU-Z to find this: That is the oddest CPU-Z glitch I have experienced so far. Unlocking CPU’s does weird things to your software

AMD Stops Shipping Phenom II

One of the best valued AMD chips has stopped shipping to retailers and etailers. Phenom II covered the whole performance spectrum at a low cost and allowed for major tweaking on all fronts. Core unlocking, and overclocking allowed the budget user to turn cheap CPU’s into real performers. These processors are what fueled my drive [...]

As a benchmarker, the biggest milestone you will come across is your first plunge below -100C. Liquid Nitrogen is -196C by nature, and to utilize this exotic cooling material, you need a fantastic evaporator, or more commonly known as a pot. Much like dry ice, cooling the processor down this cold will decrease impedance that [...]
