X2 550 Be

[lowjack989]

What is the fastest any of you have seen a locked X2 550 BE, run?

HWBot has a 6.38ghz record posted for the 550, and 6.4 for the 555. I haven't seen these myself obviously, but thought I would mention one resource, anyhow, heh. These are both on LN2, btw.

Are you serious 6.38 GHz? WTF, that is using liquid-nitrogen for cooling right?

 

[JofaMang]

Yup, LN2 as mentioned.

 

[lowjack989]

6.38 GHz unreal and I have a hard time getting any of my processors to stay stable at high speed, I need to do some research and learn how proper OCing is done.

Don't take those numbers as an achievable usable goal. The people performing these feats are dedicated to just doing that, and are using specialized equipment, supplies, and locations.

On air, I have heard of lots of people getting 4ghz daily out of their 550s, but 3.8 seems more common.
