HKEPC has a whoppa of a chip in there with the new Intel Celeron D 356. It is a 65nm Cedar Mill part and overclocks like crazy. How about 5GHz for a start? It comes with 512kb memory and is clocked at 3.325GHz which makes it, at least on paper as fast as an old Pentium Northwood 4 3.06GHz. At 5GHz, it manages to outclass a 2MB L2 Pentium 4 670 running at 3.8GHz, pretty easily.

Now jus waiting for a 65 nm A64 :ohyeah:

EDIT: Forgot to add, did they mention what type of cooling used. Coz if it wasnt air then its of not much use.
 
5GHz is cool.. wonder what kinda cooling they used for this.. if its on a heatpipe, its gr8.. on water, its cool..
 
Wow..that was some awesome show from intel after a while..:ohyeah: Damn those chinese..if only there was an english version of the review..:no:

Btw, being built on the 65nm technology may mean it may dissipate more heat owing to its architecture and as such i dont think that 5 gig OC cud have been done on plain jane air cooling..and at the same time keep it from heating up insanely..wot say?

err, dont u mean they dissipate less heat ;)

well possibly on air, but i doubt. if it is infact air all the better
 
^^Yah i forgot its a Cedar mill.. :P But you know, though the lower power consumption of the 65nm cedar mill and presler may be an advantage over the prescott and smithfields... but it is still not enough.

I guess we will have to wait for Conroe, woodcrest for a truly comparable low power usage procs like the A64 current generation.

The conroe, woodcrest and merom(mobile version) will have intel going back to 14 stage instruction pipeline..like the old pentium pro...way below today's prescott's 31 stage pipeline..that means the proccy speeds race over..intel will be coming back to 2-3 ghz range with the newer cores..
 
Yo Guys... the point to overclock is to get max out of it, even if its for fun.... Now Celeron @ 5 GHz beat P4 670 @ 3.8GHz fairly... at first it may not sound too good but for that kinda money this kinda performance is kool for sure and just shows the oppertunities with 65nm Fab process :D

Yea obviously if u get that kinda performance for the price its good but not if u have to use like liquid nitrogen to get it :S i could say i OC'd a 3000+ to 4ghz but if i had used liq nitrogen its of no use to the end user whod be overclocking on air.
 
Lol.

I think PHase Change would suffice :P

5GHz is something though :O..

I do think it should be on air. As 1.4 Volts, that too on 65nm is possible to cool on air.
 
Well Dont forget Prescotts were also excellent overclockers.

I also managed 3.9GHz on Celeron 2.4D on Socket 478.

That was on air stock cooling.

But if u had phase u wouldnt be OC'in a celeron would u :ohyeah:
 
^^^^Thank DD, Now if 5GHz with this then... I guess, hunt3r is gonna buy it... as its not LN2 and a lot less messy, wat say??

@ Goldie.... OCZ-Cryo-Z will be mostly CeBIT launch.... that means early March.
 
Lol, u got me there harshal :)

edit: at first i tht its the size of a small airplane engine. just saw the corsair modules below, so its not as big as i tht. may go for it :P
 
^^ its the intel original cooler the small airplane things u can see is used to kool the motherboard :)
