It's a Pentium

My last 3258 has maybe 2 months and went up to 5.8GHz without problems.
Clock for clock, they are the exact same cpu. If it's heavily multi threaded, I'd imagine the 4u70k/4790k would still eat it out pretty easy. 2 threads vs 8 tbreads...
5.8Ghz is not a 24/7 clock. That was likely ln2 or another extreme method.
umm, you do know that netburst is P4, this is a completely different arch. dont get caught up in the names of the models, this is so far removed from Netburst arch it isnt funny. current arch has more in common with socket 370 Pentuim 3's then netburst in anyway.I would still be interested in knowing how it benches. I seem to remember Intel saying
at one point they were planning on pushing the Netburst Pentium architecture out to 5 GHz or so.
i dunno, he did say netburst, you got any old P4's laying around that do 5+ghz to bench?What do you want know? It's been benched thousands of times!
...or are you saying a 5.8Ghz g3258 vs a stock 4770/4790k? I'd imagine you can find just that on hwbot where we bench these things.
I read an early roadmap for the Pentium Netburst architecture in which Intel wanted to get much faster clock speeds out of them (as in >> 4 GHz).
I'd still be interested in benchmarks of this "Pentium" g3258 @ 5.8 GHz. vs. 6 or 8 core CPU's at their nominal frequencies.

even more so when you factor in they that most if not all quads have HT.
That's just... wow... putting a glass ceiling on an unlocked CPU??Maybe this is the reason. According to this http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1041761574 Microsoft (at Intel's request) issued a patch for Windows 7/8/8.1 that limits the overclock possible on a G3258. It states that this code has been hardwired into Windows 10. I ran across this because I was unable to complete the install of Windows 10 on a client's machine that had an overclocked G3258 CPU installed.
**Update #2**
THE ONLY MANUFACTURE TO CREATE A WORK AROUND IS ASROCK SO FAR.... SEE THREAD HERE (ASrock website with custom BIOS update work around). ASrock actually has listened to its forum users, and created individual BIOS updates for people so they can install Win 10, and USE both cores of the G3258...
Greetings, This is ASRock Technical Department.
The Microsoft released an update "KB3064209" to update Intel Microcode.
The new microcode will cause the system cannot overclock except Z-series platform.
On your case, if you would like to keep the overclocking function on H97 platform, please use Windows 7 or 8.1 without install the update "KB3064209".
If you would like to use Windows 10, we will build a BIOS that update Microcode for you.
Kindest Regards,
ASRock TSD
