Tech Link (Overclock): Intel Dothan 780 Overclocking with Liquid Nitrogen (LN2)

The crazy crustaceans did it again, and this time, they went to go on overclocking spree with a powerful Intel® Pentium® M 780 under LN2. Now that is one top of the line processor for some benchmarking spree. They hit some pretty crazy numbers of on the mini wonder!

Reminiscing the days, I remember everytime I'll post something over at TipidPC about such kind of overclocking, a lot of AMDroids and detractors would say whether something like that under a frozen liquid is usable, it's a waste, or just plainly stupid act. Well, how times changed when some AMDroids began putting their favor A* processor under such extreme condition as well and hitting crazy numbers and they were like "oh man, that is just wonderful and wickedly sick fast". These people really are dumb.

Another instance that I remember was when SLI was first released on the Tumwater platform (yes, it wasn't first released on A*'s platform you dimwit AMDroids, here's another linky), AMDroids and detractors were whining it's just a waste of money, and all such bullcrap. Well, until NVIDIA* decided to release it on A*, then the whole new song of how wonderful it is to have two great card as an uber gaming platform becomes AMDroids' favorite hymn. They sure are crap, the AMDroids.

As for the integrated memory controller? AMDroids, A* isn't the first to have thought it out and implemented it on the processor. Go research on Google about the Timna processor from Chipzilla. Anyway, I took too much time whining again, below is the linky:
