im not nockin it or nuthin but some guys in brazil overclocked a Pentium M 1.6ghz to 3.16ghz (~98% overclock) with Dry Ice, using the ASUS adapter and an asus i865 board and that got a score of 23seconds in super pi - less then half the clock speed makes me wonder - how good are the Intel Conroe's going to be? a tuned up pentium m will kick ass aswell as remain cold (70w).

Its a real shame that netburst is getting canned like burnt roast - why cant intel make water cooling a standard? then 200w or more might be acceptable and by the looks of things AMD (and most others) could use the standard too - there heading that way sooner or later...
 
23 secs isnt great for a pentium M. There are M's out there running much faster. As for water cooling, the CPU manufacture doesnt set that standard, the customer has alot of input in that category. Most PCs are used in buisness settings. It would be hard to convince the average buisness owner to run water over his/her CPU.

got any links for pentium m overclocks?

yeah quite true - would be tough to convince water cooling unless intel intro'd them onto the market (or a more efficent cooler better then air)

whats the best desktop cpu super pi score sofar (like a record holer)?

20 seconds on the M and I think that the desktop that just benched 7.2 was 18 secs.

Yp just checked truly amazing, he reached 7.3237ghz awsome

These guys are crazy
God damn, my 520W OCZ Powerstream just blew up
When I started SuperPI 1M calculation, I instantly saw a small flash inside the psu and some component flew out thru the grill of front fan...
Not a surprise that the psu is now completely dead.

It also "burned" (turned off) the 10A fuse of my lab room.

Pretty nice chip anyway. With 1.475V (from bios) I was able to run SuperPI 1M calculation thru at 6.46GHz. My previous 660 chip needed over 1.6V to do that.

Let´s hope that the psu didn´t take anything with it to the other side

Luckily I have some spare 600W Powerstreams in reserve

I´m not pissed off because the psu, but the smell of burned silicon is pure horror
Apparently the OCZ Powerstream didn´t want to die alone...
It killed everything that was connected to it (P5WD2 Prem., Intel P4 670, 1GB Corsair 5400UL ES, WD Caviar 200GB SATA hdd).

Thank you OCZ

Never again.
I´ll go and order a PCP&C 850W PSU and give that PS 600W to salvation army

LOL!

I find it suspicious that he reached 7.3237ghz, now maybe 7.3236999mhz maybe 😉

Lol!!
There is a reason thought! they use ClockGen. Lets you adjust clock speed from windows on the fly. And the steps arent round. So you get like 1.6mhz steps...
So he did get 7323,7Mhz.

And when you stop to think about it. 1 Mhz is already really fast! isnt it 1 million time every seconds? thats already some serious oscillation lol

sighs, but my 5-MHZ 286 just does not seem to do it for me anymore.
