October 12, 2011 Matt Ring News, Processors 38

EDITOR’S NOTE: Unfortunately our Crosshair IV Extreme does not seem to support Bulldozer, even on the latest beta BIOS. We will work with ASUS to correct the problem and re-schedule the livestream. Thanks for your support!

Overclockers.com has already published benchmarking results for AMD’s new Bulldozer this morning in our FX-8150 review.  Now, OC Forums administrator and Benching Team member I.M.O.G. will be putting the new CPU to the test. Using the latest hardware and liquid nitrogen cooling, I.M.O.G. will take Bulldozer as far as he can tonight in the spirit of the world record set earlier this month.

Tune in to Overclockers Live at 10:00 p.m. EST for live overclocking action. Here’s the low-down:

  • Mobo: Asus Crosshair IV Extreme
  • CPU: AMD FX 6100 Bulldozer
  • RAM: G.Skill Trident 2x2GB
  • Cooling: Liquid Nitrogen
  • Focus: Explore the overclocking capabilities of AMD’s new Bulldozer architecture.
  • Click here to watch on Overclockers Live
  • Date & Time: Tonight October 12, 2011 at 10:00 p.m. EST

Stop by and root I.M.O.G. on!

Oh great, he added an extra hour to it... 1st it was 9, now 10...
Looks like I'll just sit here like an idiot an extra hour... 3:47AM already.
I'll kill my spare time by raging at AMD (already sent a disturbing email to their 'tech support').

Yuck! How do you drink that stuff? Granted half way through the second you can't taste it, but you have to get 1 and 1/2 down first

Ehhh, ATM I'm drinking for the effect, not taste. It's the the second most cost efficient way to get drunk. 1 40oz for $2.20 @ 8.1% ABV is like .. 6.7 standard beers for $2.20.

And ... malt liquor grows on you! XD It's so gross, but gives me a warm tingling feeling, that I actually like the taste. Anyways, on to tequila, brb

You do have a point, and malt liquor will put hair on you for sure. Tequila is better:beer:
