How fast can you overclock? - 12/30/1999 @ 06:18 EST
|
|
I Have no idea whats the fastest you can over clock certain CPU's but this one seemed a very novel idea. As quoted on the CEX homepage
"A "Japanese fan" has apparently over clocked his Pentium III 750MHz to 1286MHz using liquid nitrogen to cool it down. "
P.S. anybody noticed that whenever there is a lack of news we seem to be able to find more humourous pieces. Well we are always after a laugh so send in your topical news.

A new version of TRWin-GL was reported at EmuHQ(its an N64 Emulator for Windows if you didn't know). It has some cool speed and graphics improvements and also a very nice GUI. Remember its an OpenGL emulator so the better OpenGL support your card has the better it is bound to run.

Later today will be a historic achievement for the current Space Shuttle Mission. One of the Prime objectives of the mission was to upgrade the Hubble Telescope from a 386 chip to a 486 processor.
Im assuming its pretty cold in space so I hope they overclocked the chip to give that it that extra bit of speed we all try to gain once in a while. Congratulations lads.
(I have enough trouble upgrading my machine in the confines of my house)
