CPU: AMD Phenom X6 1055t

Just wanting to know because i would like to know how far some people have pushed this Processor

Screen shots would be nice:)
 
I personally have never owned one, but I've seen a stable OC on air @3.9Ghz.
On water there are plenty of youtube vids, most I've seen is 4.5Ghz
On liquid nitrogen, I've never seen it done.
On dry ice I've seen 5.3Ghz with an i3 ([email protected]) it's [the screenshot] on this forum somewhere, so I imagine an X6 could approach the 5Ghz mark:D
 
Intel and AMD clock very differently, no point in comparing whatsoever. You've probably seen my I3, which I got to 5.6ghz actually.

About a 3.8-4ghz on GOOD air cooling is realistic. 4.2ghz is realistic on water. You may have seen 4.5, but that was most likely just a well binned chip. Water cooling does not really help THAT much if you have really good air cooling. 4.8-5.0ghz on Dry Ice cooling, and more with LN2 of course but thats where my expertise runs out.
