Guinness world record for processor speed broken by AMD

The Guinness world record was broken on the third of three staged runs, after AMD experts tested a variety of FX processors to find which ones performed the best. The processors were initially tested with liquid nitrogen at temperatures below -180 degrees centigrade, and then later tested with even colder liquid helium.

The pc line-up is noteworthy for being the world’s first eight-core desktop CPU, something that is sure to excite gamers around the world. “This fully unlocked line-up of processors was designed with gamers and HD media enthusiasts in mind, who can get a measurable frequency and performance boost with overclocking,” said Cox.

While the boffins at AMD would undoubtedly be very proud about having a Guinness World Record to their name, this event seems like a well planned media stunt due to its timing on the first day of the Intel Developer Conference.
