An FX8320 Cooled with an Alpenfohn Matterhorn Rev B with push-pull delta 120X38mm, 3900RPM, 192CFM fans for maximum cooling efficiency. The Thermal Paste under was Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut used by top overclockers around the world. The CPU is in a Asus CVFZ motherboard and is currently at 4.7ghz on 1.45v.
Thanks For watching!

The previous was pretty bad, so thought i'd make a better one this time round.
I've been messing about with this cpu a bit and it doesnt seem to overclock too well even when i've tried for a quite a while to dial it in with the memory timings etc. Its just not good silicon.
Still, for the price i think its a good deal. 10700K and 5600X are clearly not as good for this CPU. I think its makes the most sense if you are coming from an i5 10600K or already have a Z490 board to pair it with.

Do you even 5ghz? can your ivy do 5g? can your hasweasel do 5g? can you DC do 5g? can your broadwell...... lol. Can your skylake do 5g?
No they cant, but this sandy bridge i5 2500K, the last of the poor people platform soldered cpu's, on the greatest ambient cooling architecture ever made can.
In this video this i5 goes from Core 2 Quad QX9650 to i5 6600K in less than 15mins.
Also i am fully aware that the Z77 OCF is a boss motherboard and your MSI GD43 couldnt dream of ocing a celeron to 5ghz, but you this is what a sandybridge can really do when you give it some nice clean power.
