The last area was more of a spectator event. This was the overclocking demo/contest. For this there were two teams. The first was from AMD and the second team was from Finland. The contest was done in two parts. The first part was air-cooling and the second (and my favorite) was done using Liquid Nitrogen. Each team was randomly given Five of the Phenom II 940 chips cooled by a Cooler Master Z600 in a pus-pull configuration. The goal of this was to achieve the highest stable overclock. Stability was tested with two loops of the Crysis cpu test. Each team worked side by side with only 30 minutes to achieve their highest stable clock. Both teams were using the Gigabyte 790gx motherboard and the 4870x2 graphics card. Windows Vista was preloded all they needed was the chips.
