Intel's quad-core Kentsfield processor isn't even out yet - Intel expects to release it in the fourth quarter of this year-but members of the XtremeSystems forums have already gotten their hands on some engineering samples of the chip and are overclocking the pants off them. One of these members, who goes by the name of Stoolman, got his Kentsfield up from the stock 2.66GHz to a clock speed of 4.8GHz. The processor did need just under 1.9V of juice along with a healthy supply of liquid nitrogen to get to that speed, and it stayed within a fairly chilly range of -170°C to -180°C (-274°F to -292°F.)

dont need to nothing special on it, why do u wanna see all the confidential ES words?

Adn this is just early revisions.... this chips gonna be hard to block off, but cooling must be ultimate for the max clocks

As shamino said needs very good cooling to clock this chip, Maverik has one which he has done some benching on, hear is the link for hiis chip.
