if you watch that video, he has to refill the liquid nitrogen during that short test period, he would have to do that numerous times if he was going to play a game for a few hours with it.

so you really do want to blow 5 grand on a computer just to test it out for about 30 minutes and overclock it then forget about it? you porbably wont even break world record marks in 3D becuz 5 grand isnt even enough. cant u understand that your not going to get LN2?

Your not going to break a world record. Its that simple. The poeple who hit 18,000 points have years of experiance and computers are there life. You have neither the tools nor the equipment. Dont say you'll get the tools and that you'll learn. Its not that easy. You might have to go through 5 or 6 processors before you find one that clocks good. Thats over $5000 in itself. LN2 is very expensive. And you are probably going to fry a couple of processors. Its not just as easy as buying a kickass rig and pumping up the FSB.

Maybe the above paragraph is a bit harsh, but I really think its a bad idea for you to buy a rig just for breaking world records, and fry the whole thing trying.

I know some overclockers down there.

Ill make sure to get the right tools. to boost this baby.
Beside the X2 5000+ is clocked at 2.6 GHz and equipped with 1x 1 MB L2 cache. Thats like 2 fx 55.
With the help of OCZ PC4000 Dual Channel Gold VX DDR Memory and LIQUID NITROGEN and that processor i should hit more then 20k

Now i have 5000.00 us dollars to spend. This should be enough to build it to the EXTREME LEVEL

I dont think that rig will break 20k without the help of liquid nitrogen

I dont think you'll break 20 k at all.

Thats a kickass rig dont just not buy it because you cant break 20 K with it. Your not going to be breaking any world records so just buy a rig and actualy use it for practical reasons.

lol. You'd need some new ground breaking experimental cooling. I'd stick with the rig I gotcha. It's about the best home user computer you can build.

Agreed. By the way, how much do you even know about overclocking? Have you even tried it before? Have you had a >500 mhz before??
