Now that's an overclocked chip. This was spotted at <a href="http://slashdot.org/">Slashdot</a> in an article called <a href="http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/29/0556251&mode=thread&tid=137">P4 2.80GHz Overclocked to 3.917GHz</a>. In their English language abstract, they mention that they actually got it to run at 3.998GHz after all. Yeah, those numbers are correct. These crazy Finnish guys place the entire chip assembly into a bath of <i>liquid nitrogen</i> inside a styrofoam cup (see picture). In a couple of pictures, you can see the Fluke thermometer registering -193°C! The whole site's in Finnish, but you should check out <a href="http://www.muropaketti.com/artikkelit/cpu/nw2800/index3.phtml">Intel Northwood 2,8GHz</a> on <a href="http://www.muropaketti.com">MuroPaketti.com</a> if you're interested in seeing what some people will do with a $500 chip.
