9,100,000,000 hertz

So here we are.
Elmor and I are ready to push the Core i9-14900KF to its limit while Shamino and Bing manage the temperature with liquid helium. It is our final attempt at breaking the CPU Frequency World Record with the Core i9-14900KF Raptor Lake Refresh processor.
It's been a grueling and mentally exhausting week at the ASUS OC Event. Every result from last week's record attempt failed to validate at the CPU-Z database. That includes several scores that would've been the new CPU Frequency world record. Following that disappointment, the team spent the entire weekend until deep in the night trying to figure out the root cause of our problems.
But that's a long story I'll save for perhaps another video.
Today, so far, the best we could achieve was 9 GHz. Not bad, given it's only the second time a CPU passes the 9 GHz mark. But it falls short of our goal to break the world record with the 14900KF processor.
With the last liters of liquid helium, we go for one final attempt.

Congratz fellow overclockers! Fun fact: You sell the cpu in fb marketplace with the title, i9 14900kf Slightly used only on web browsing ! :D

Very good silicon, proven to reach 9.1 Ghz if OCd properly and safely

Next step: 1 hour of 100% all cores load at 9.1GHz. That would be something to call "achievement".

[@basook6116]

clocking 9.1GHz is great, but performances compare to AMD is just waste of money. higher clock don't means better performances

@@anonymous5401 I understand where you are coming from. and I love nothing more than pushing the chip to the best it can go. however, in reality, most of people choose performance standpoint. keep up with great work

Goddamn you guys are using liquid helium?? Damnnnn. Would be epic to see STABLE 9.1 GHZ lol... I dont think we'll ever see it... since you need the coldest liquid in the entire universe to get there only for a few seconds.

[@stygmastermaniac3173]

Quote "At the launch of the Pentium 4 (ed. in the year 2000), Intel stated that NetBurst-based processors were expected to scale to 10 GHz after several fabrication process generations." (Wikipedia) with "10GHz by 2005 running at < 1 volt" (The future of Intel's manufacturing processes)

[@cutcorners6005]

Do you know if DLVR is present on 14th gen or if v/f curve is different from 13th gen?

[@mythbuster4315]

Same same no difference, no dlvr

[@SkatterBencher]

No DLVR, same like Raptor Lake The exact V/F curve is different for each CPU. Given 14th gen comes with a clock boost, the V/F curve will be slightly different on average

[@abdullahal-muhit6987]

@PCBuilderBangladesh where are you?

[@abhinavbisht9851]

they should de benchmarks on such high clock speeds.....

woah i remember shamino from vr-zone forum, great to see still in the zone

[@szilasmatyas]

Awesome overclock nice job, you play it hard =]

[@hootangofi]

Great one. Its nice to see this

[@gregaiken1725]

im too dense to understand this. is a raw cpu just being driven with high clock frequencies? or is this a full system working in harmony doung actual program execution?

[@SkatterBencher]

It's like the land speed record: the CPU is doing something incredibly fast (9000 MHz = 9 billion clock cycles per second) but what it's doing (creating a validation file) serves little purpose beyond measuring the speed.

[@basook6116]

for the people, there is no differences between 12th, 13th gen. and 14th gen. same node of 10nm. but, higher price

[@prosecanlik4296]

You could just imagine what Intel could do if they switch over to 5nm or even 4 or 3nm procces... they are neck and neck with AMD that uses TSMC's 5nm procces but Intel is still rocking with 10nm. If they can match AMD with 10nm, just imagine what they could do with 5 or 4nm

[@basook6116]

@@prosecanlik4296 I agree, Intel is trying to trick people that 14th gen. is better. but only thing is higher price and increase in voltage

That's the sound of helium being pushed into the cooling pot. You can see the temperature go down shortly after

[@cppctek]

I thought my 6ghz 13600k was a big feat but this is mental. Is there anything specific for why you chose a kf instead of the k? Does the kf have a better bin or spu or something to deem it a better candidate

[@TheQuentincc]

I believe good 14900K are kept aside for future 14900KS sku, there is no "KFS" so KF CPU can have mental core/IMC but a defective HD graphics (which is required for KS CPU)

[@iDeparture]

​@TheQuentincc, the only difference between a K and kf skew is the on board video is disabled on the kf. Cheaper and if you oc especially pushing cores to this level its one less potential variable you have to worrying about. I (like most people) don't use other igpu and it's 30-50 bucks less so no point imo to spend money more money for nothing. And idk what this other comment was saying but a KS I just pre binned cores k isna kf and if they wanted could turn the on board graphics back on and its a k. Kf still ive graphic on the chip its just not enabled. KS is also have a silicon lotto within the deemed KS skews and can absolutely trash talked to some guy for an ex and his KS was terrible I couldn't even hit an allcore oc then most k and kf skews can so he was going to already but I Said return or read it bc that absurd. Aslo the memory controllers aren't binned just the cores which I think is retarded but they don't so you could have really good silicon but then wanna go oc your hynix a or m die and then find that the imc is dog shit.
