Looks like someone has broken the 6ghz barrier. They overclocked a    P4 Prescott from 3.6ghz to just over 6ghz at 1.3ghz FSB. They cooled it using liquid nitrogen.

I'm guessing it's not too stable. I wonder how long it can hold that. Probably end up snaping under the huge amount of stress. Anyway check it out yourselves

It is not stable, it reboots everytime anything that uses more processing power than starting up MS word does. 

It is cooled with liquid nitrogen. Shocked
