   I7 920 D0 Overclocking

   Pushing it to the max with Xigmatek's Thor's Hammer

   Page 2 / 6                                       07/28/09




As mentioned earlier, we overclocked this CPU with both intel's stock HSF and an aftermarket CPU cooling solution. Take a look at the Thor's hammer installed on the CPU. It is MASSIVE !!


          


This heat sink ships without any fans but I attached two 120 mm fans to it. One pushing air in and the other one pulling it out of the back of the case for maximum cooling. Below is a picture showing the two fans installed. The fans interfered with the heat sinks on the memory modules and also with the passive heat sink on the motherboard.


                    



On the next page we will take a look at some benchmark results !
