Opteron 244 LN2 Overclocking

Dom · Jul 22, 2003, 06:25 AM

"My friend Katsumi from Japan has overclocked his Opteron 244 (1.8Ghz) to over 2.2GHz on LN2 cooling using the ASUS SK8N nForce3 Pro board. Perhaps the 2.2Ghz CPU should be named Opteron 148 like the RedStorm supercomputer built by Cray comprises of 10368 Opteron 148."

At least they're overclockable

It's a brand new core though. In a couple of revisions it'll probably get much better.

Malus, don't forget that's a 64bit CPU. So when overclocked the difference should be quite substantial.
