AKIBA PC Hotline! managed to snap some shots of an overclocked Core Duo
desktop machine running at a local computer store. The system featured a 2.16GHz
Core Duo T2600 running on an
AOpen i975X a-YDG desktop motherboard, and the CPU was overclocked to an
impressive 2797.5MHz with a 215.2MHz bus and 13X multiplier. The chip was
overvolted to 1.36V-not too far off the rated 1.16-1.3V operating range for Core
Duos-and seemed to idle at only 24°C with what looks like an Intel 70mm fan
running at 2400 RPM. Little information is available regarding performance or
stability, although the system did seem able to complete a 19-iteration 1M Super
PI run in 23 seconds! (thanks
