A new record for the new year. That was what world renowned overclocker Andre Yang had in mind. about a month and half ago, at AMD Extreme Overclocking show in Taipei, Taiwan for the launch of Trinity and Piledriver based products, several vendors showed off their extreme overclocking produts. Andre Yang, not present at the event, had earlier that week already set the new record for the FX-8350 processor at 8.67GHz.
Today, we can see the first of undoubtly a long series of "sandbag" validation results: 8.79GHz!, about 90MHz higher than the current frequency record at HWBOT. As you can see from the validation time, the record was in fact validated November 19, 2012. Given that CES kicks off next week, we assume that the next backup validation could be published right before CeBIT.
