Just a few days after we learned about the new world record supposedly set by an AMD FX-8150 CPU, we read about a feat in Intel's side of the camp.
Gigabyte Taiwan has actually issued a press release in which it details the feat of a Taiwanese overclocker going by the handle HiCookie. By means of a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H motherboard, Corsair DDR3 RAM (random access memory) and a Corsair AX 1200 power supply, the Intel Core i7-3770K was driven all the way up to 7 GHz and beyond (7,031.71 MHz).
Three of the four cores were disabled during the run. The FSB was set at 111.63 MHz and the multiplier at 63x. Finally, the voltage was 1.956V. You can go here for the specs of the CPU and here for details on the previous record and its holder.
