Update: 2500k hit 5.1 GHz on 1.51v

By

I OC'ed my 2500k into 5.1 GHz at 1.51v voltage.

OCCT ran fully stable for 5:30 minutes with cpu-x on background.

First image is CPU-X, second image is OCCT during test and final image is OCCT after 5:30 test.

Cooling:
Many 120mm fans and an external tower fan.

CPU cooler is Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo and cpu temps sat around 60 to 70 celsius.

Motherboard is Asus p8z68 and it has single stick of 4GB ddr3 RAM.

    Who in the right mind would chose CPU-X over the original CPU-Z?

    Those are rookie numbers. Bust out the ln2

    This is impressive. I only just recently upgraded from my 2500k so I have a lot of love for that CPU.

    Take care when giving the 2500K that much voltage, they tend to scale well beyond degradation danger.
