Although 8 GHz came very close to that goal. OC Team Italy definately couldn't have achieved such a speed with Prescott or Prescott 2M, since the fastest-clocked models using these cores gave off 115 W of heat. Besides, even at 8 GHz the Pentium 4 sucks. Some people think Pentium 4 was the best processor for its time (2000-2006), but it wasn't even superior to AMD's processors or the IBM PowerPC ones. Although, if they overcloked the Pentium 4 HT (the HT stands for Hyper-Threading) 631 to 10 GHz, then Intel could have achieved the same goal, by shipping each model with a liquid nitrogen cooler and a 10 pound heatsink. Although, I'm glad they discontinued the Pentium 4 or I would be searching Amazon or Newegg for a dual-core Athlon FX.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tothamax]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 14th 2009 8:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentium 4 overclocked to 8GHz: let's see your fancy Core 2 try that]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok, I don't care what kind of processor it is.

Unfortunately, not many people process quantum physics at home, although, I am not exactly sure what the day job is of someone carrying liquid nitrogen around the house either.  To answer wargarurumon, it will be stable as long as the liquid keeps flowing.  The power requirements probably aren't any different from a stock P4 since the resistance has dropped due to the cold temperature, they may have a 550W PSU backing it up.  Strider, if they are using the same setup I have seen before to do extreme OC'ing, there is a large pipe, (like 2ft tall) coming out of a case on its side that is sitting right on top of the P4's heatsink.  The only cold the video card is getting will be from ambient chilling as the pipe sucks all the heat away from everything around it to boil the nitrogen.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[disciple83]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 24th 2007 8:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentium 4 overclocked to 8GHz: let's see your fancy Core 2 try that]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</guid><description><![CDATA[Since I won't be processing quantum physics at home, I would rather use the liquid nitrogen to make extra-smooth ice cream (yes it really does work! beats most ice creams in the shops), and watch Prison Break on the Pentium 4 computer while eating the ice cream.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Richard Lai]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 24th 2007 1:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentium 4 overclocked to 8GHz: let's see your fancy Core 2 try that]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</guid><description><![CDATA[Of course the power requirements have changed.

I wouldn't be surprised if a core 2 duo can go past 8ghz on just regular old ice or liquid natural gas. Especially when Intel starts making their 45nm chips. The core 2 duos are already extremely overclockable (is that a word?) with stock cooling cause they are extremely efficient compared to the heat monger Pentium 4 series. What kinda speeds would it get with liquid nitro? I can only imagine. Wouldn't it be cool (but probably not possible) if we could install liquid nitro systems in computers, for when you need that extra bump you just turn on the juice and let it fly into overclock for a quick boost? I'm running at 3ghz, then woosh its 8ghz muh haha. (the point? its like nos in a pc! and its just so ridiculous it has to be awesome!)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gilbert Garcia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 24th 2007 11:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentium 4 overclocked to 8GHz: let's see your fancy Core 2 try that]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</guid><description><![CDATA[MEH!<br><br>----------<br>FB a.k.a LDM<br>Water-bending Master<br><a href="http://www.eternal-champions.com/images/ldm_master_builder!.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.eternal-champions.com/images/ldm_master_builder!.jpg</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Frankenstein Black]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 24th 2007 11:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Pentium 4 overclocked to 8GHz: let's see your fancy Core 2 try that]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/24/pentium-4-overclocked-to-8ghz-lets-see-your-fancy-core-2-try-t/</guid><description><![CDATA[Bah, Single Core?
