means that these CPUs overclock
like a dream under extreme cooling
even with their locked multipliers.
LN2 evaporators, liquid nitrogen,
dry ice and insulation will obviously
be the order of the day along with
dose of bravery and a sip of good
luck. While the costs involved may
add up fairly quickly, they are more
than outweighed by the costs of
18 The OverClocker Issue 38 | 2016
binning a higher SKU and the i36300 (6320 even better) is a good
contender as an entry to extreme
overclocking. For these results we
turned to the i3-6300 leader boards
over at HWBOT.
We'll take a look at CineBench R15
first, where American overclocker
l0ud_sil3nc3 achieved 716 points
using a Core i3 6300 @ 6,300MHz
with a Bclk of 165MHz. To give some
perspective, that score is better
than what can be expected from a
stock Core i7-4770K. While it may
be a generation older, it is still a
processor with double the core,
thread and L3 cache offered by
the little i3-6300. This feat was
performed using the ASRock Z170M
OC Formula motherboard and 16GiB
