Quick! SOmeone go borg this!!

I agree.

We all know that Pi has no repeating decimals so who cares how many millions of decimal points we calculate it to.

I wonder how fast it process the QMDs?

Best to put it to work for science and the elimination of cancer.

Fold On!!
 
Mmmmm.... curing cancer one tank of liquid nitrogen at a time. :D

Haha and people think running the AC 24/7 is expensive...

7.1ghz is pretty sick, I wonder how a fx57 would do under that same setup? Anyone know the current highest AMD oc?
 
That's awesome!

I'm curious though, how is he protecting the rest of the system components from condensation ect. Did you see all the ice on the mobo?

Not anywhere near 7.1 GHz...AMD's architecture doesn't scale as well. Netburst was designed to hit high clock speeds, but wasn't as efficient, which is how 2.2GHz AMDs can compete with a 3.2 GHz. ;)

Don't know highest AMD clock though...internet just went retarded, this is the only site that loads. -_-

You use conformal coating. It's a spray on clear coat for protecting electronics, similar in effect to polyurethane, but designed to adhere to a more broad range of materials over a wider range of conditions. It's epoxy based so it expands and contracts at the same rate as printed circuit boards. Also, you fill any sockets/slots with dielectric grease (non-conductive grease) to keep condensation from happening there.

The current highest AMD clock is somewhere around 4.4 GHz. the AMD architecture was never designed to clock that high, and there's no hope for it to ever hit 7.1 GHz, but that clock speed is where Netburst was designed to scale up to. It really doesn't get it's kicks in until 4 GHz or so. Believe it or not, if you've seen the benchmarks from a 6.5 GHZ-ish one, it's about at that speed that Netburst performs as well as an AMD in games. The only problem is, to hit those clock speeds you need wicked thermal dissipation. The one thing Intel's guys didn't quite realize when they made the Netburst architecture is that the heat produced by a processor goes up near exponentially as the clock speed increases, it's not linear. So, they hit a wall, and Netburst became the scourge of the internet.
 
And WHY does everyone use SuperPI? pifast is way, way faster.

According to the posted statement, the system managed to calculate π (pi) number to 1 million decimal places in 18.516 seconds, which is currently the world’s record.

So I just broke the record by a factor of 5. Heck, I once did 10^10 digits of e in 17 days before the FAH days.
