AMD FX Sets Guinness Record for Clock Speed

All. Hardly.

Most any CPU with HT, at minimum HT is disabled, in a lot, cores are disabled. This is the best way to achieve the highest clocks. If someone didnt disable HT and some cores, they likely havent maxed out their CPU. Its the way it is and there isnt any getting around that.

2600k - http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/core_i7_2600k/
i7 920 - http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/core_i7_920/

I can go on...and on, but hopefully you get my point.

I didn't look at every CPU-z shot on HWbot just the highest ones ~40 , but both #1 in the links you posted shows 4 cores 4 threads on CPU-z
Anyhow i always thought that to be able to have your overclock record with CPU-z that you must have all core enable otherwise it is rejected , i guess i was wrong...

Still wonder why so many people , most of them (from what i see so far) try the highest score with all cores enable , when much simpler with only 1-2 cores?
maybe most of them like me don't know that you don't have to have all cores enable?

Anyways case close & watch out for next CPU-z shot...:laugh:;)

I actually think you might be able to pull it off. I wasn't trying to be a dick or anything, I just wanted to see how close you came.

I nearly came!

I'll let you two discuss that in PM , i don't wont to know anything about it.... :roll:
