1) i7-3770K CPU Frequency World Record
Andre, TeamRU, Smoke, with assistance from Hazzan, Shamino and a boat-load of Liquid Helium cracked the i7-3770K CPU frequency world record at 7184.3MHz! See the validation below. Supporting hardware included the Maximus V Extreme, G.Skill DDR3, an Antec HCP 1200W PSU and Kingston SSD.

That’s not all though, because other world records broken include:

2) SuperPi 1M: 5.094s
Within a hairs width of hitting sub-5 seconds! 7.043GHz and G.Skill DDR3 at 2.683GHz CL6

3) SuperPi 32M: 4 minutes 43 seconds

4) PiFast: 10.16 seconds

No pics of the helium going into the pots?? 😞

I am disturbed because I cannot break my system...found out there were others trying to cope! We have a support group on here, if your system will not break, please join!

Good job! :cool:

Does the liquid helium makes a difference over the LN2? Or it's just about availability? At what temps was that 3770k running during those tests?

LHe is a lot colder than LN2. Liquid Nitrogen is <-195.8 C...Liquid Helium is < -269 C...about twice as cold on the Kelvin scale.

The 3770K benches higher because of Intel's floating-point lead over AMD. Don't want to start a flame war, but when FLOPs matter, it is Intel all the way.

Over -200C, probably about -220 to -230, but we don't know because the thermometer stops at -200.
