Intel Core i7-7740K Sets Kaby Lake CPU Frequency And RAM World Records

This is pretty impressive no matter how you look at it. 😎


The team set out on a mission to smash a few records using Gigabyte’s X299 Aorus motherboards (which we covered here), Aorus graphics cards, and G.Skill memory. They employed liquid helium to lower the chips to a frosty -250°C, and Team AU broke the Kaby Lake CPU frequency record with a Kaby Lake-X Core i7-7740K clocked at 7.5GHz on an Gigabyte X299-SOC Champion.
