The new Intel processor was able to overclock to almost 7 gigahertz

Overclocker NickShih managed to overclock the new Intel Core i5 chip, created using a 32-nanometer process technology (Clarkdale architecture), to 6921.79 megahertz, Lenta.ru reports.

For cooling NickShih had to use liquid nitrogen. According to the overclocker, he did not notice any failures even when cooled to ultra-low temperatures of -185 degrees Celsius.

Interested in the details, I used the search to find the original ... and actually found the illustrations.

Completion of work (still clickable)

I had multiple sessions, some hours before I spent 4 hours without raising temps above -120C. It was a cold water pumping. It is a cold problem for you to write the board. I have a cold boot bug on the EVGA P55 Classified at -60C. It has been changed to a manageable -120C. It will be a chip by chip basis. I also thought I held up.
