Five days of insane overclocking come to a close with sweet memories and even sweeter new world records! Click in to see the full details.
We talk to the overclockers that made Absolute Zero so…cool
After lessons learnt on day 2 with liquid Helium, day 3 ran smoother. Andre cracked on attacking SuperPi and Prime records at 7GHz while Raja and Splave controlled the pressure and quantity of liquid Helium respectively. We’ve put together a full gallery of all the days happenings.
Day 2 the liquid helium arrived. This can’t be handled like liquid nitrogen in flasks and pots, it needs to be applied directly from the central storage canister. The specialist (long) tubing to direct and apply the liquid helium down to the pot was a US$5,000 investment alone! It has its own valve to control the amount of liquid applied, but to generate the pressure to force it out the cryogenic canister, another compressed Helium bottle was used to push the liquid through. The combination of pressure and quantity of liquid Helium had to be balanced to keep the extreme temp stable.
