^ gawd.. One up people??.. Uuuugh.. Got a buddy like that back home.. I could tell him the rig I just built (In my sig) and he'd prolly know a do0d from Southern Wyoming who knew someone who had a friend in Japan that moved here that he used to be friends with who built a Quad core Intel 6 years ago, before it was released that he could run Crysis on FULL with... But that was then and he doesn't talk to him anymore.. LOL.. It's always his buddy Arron who has these 'INSANE' rigs that we never see.. LOL. -Seriously.. That's how he is.. "Well Arron's got a 2500 watt PSU and a 7.82G Intel Quad.. We custom OC'd it with this guy he knows."


"Yeah well, Arron's got four 8800's hooked up to his 60" plasma with 7.1 surround!"

Your friend is full of it. The core 2 architecture was no were even close to complete 6 years ago so it's not possible for him to have had a processor based off of it. Also the highest oc for a Intel quad is somewhere in the 6ghz range and it was done using liquid nitrogen cooling which is far from viable for 24/7 usage.

He could have just added the speeds...
