4.0Ghz per core on AMD?

[Gadfly]

I am looking at updating my rig.

I am running a modded vaporchill LS, and currently clock my X2 4800 to 3.2ghz, and my old OPT 150 to 3.5ghz.

Has anyone hit 4.0ghz stable on some of the newer AMD's?

What does everyone recommend as far as a new build?

Currently I think the WR is ~4.1 on an FX-57. The new AM2 procs with an F3 stepping are hitting ~3-3.2 on stock voltage pretty consistently, and seem to go up to ~3.4 on the top end with air cooling. Those 90nm F3s are far and away the best clocking A64s available today, however you'll obviously run into more issues with two cores.

Perhaps with something as serious as vapochill you'd be able to hit it, but there may be a cold bug to deal with. Check out and see if anyone on XS (or elsewhere) has managed a chilled run of an F3.

HERE you will see that this FX-55 got too over 4k

And Here is the Official WR for amd with an FX-57 like the person above me said. So from these two bits of info i would say get a FX-55/57 for your best chance too make it that far. good luck in your journeys.
