oblique Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 I guess it is all in the topic title. I have seen more that a few people here with 4GHz systems but why do you need that fast a computer? Is it just cos you can do it, or do we have some people running servers for NASA here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overclocker16 Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 For the fun of it. What is the point in having a CPU and not OCing it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
creager Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 i can agree 4 ghz is a hell of a lot and could probably run a yahoo server machine lol. i think going up to 2.5ghz or 3ghz is fine but i dont know much that would need much more than htat.

Badams66 Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 (edited) I wish i had a 4ghz machine ! It sure does beat my 250mhz! lol! Edited June 1, 2003 by Tyme_66 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transattic Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 OK, i dont know that the 4ghz actually exist. But i do know that you guys OC your cpus up to 4ghz... Which cpu's can be OC'ed that high??? Maybe i can try it on my 1.533ghz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overclocker16 Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 Hope you were being sarcastic. They can hardly get them up to 4GHz on liquid nitro. Stable that is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted June 1, 2003 Posted June 1, 2003 well... maby 4Ghz for boot but not much after that lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
General912 Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 Dual cpus that how they get it up that high its the only way right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just cos you can do it, or do we have some people running servers for NASA here? actually, i'd say most big companies (like nasa) runs their severs on pc's that have about 32 CPUs and total about 50 GHz or more. (according to my pc class teacher.) Edited June 2, 2003 by sYstEmATiC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
General912 Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 actully nasa has outdated hardwear. This is because the unwillingness for the government to give more money to them. and because they are a cilivan agency they have to be pretty much self serving.

Muninn Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 They can hardly get them up to 4GHz on liquid nitro. Stable that is. easily, we're only about 10 months away from a marketable 4 ghz machine and your telling me that they can only BARELY do it with liq-nitro, gimme a break man THINK THINK THINK we've just had the release of a 3.2 ghz processor both companies (intel and amd) i'm sure have a working model of a processor that is far faster and more efficient that the current models but because of R&D they need to market and release the models at a tapered rate. Now because of the CPU war that has been going on recently between intel and AMD (fastest CPU on market) we have seen CPU's coming out more frequently at faster speeds but i digress still a bad day muninn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishop245 Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 at present time i have only seen 4 gig systems using liquid nitrogen it is probably do able on water with a pelt also though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
