February 3, 200620 yr Ahh.... the glorious Google Video brings us this link.AMD Duron VaporizesThe long of the short of it... 1GHz Duron overclocked to 3.8GHz... then they remove the heatsink.
February 3, 200620 yr There's the Kaboom--Too bad they performed the test on only a single PC, with the heatsink removed. Be interested to see how far they could crank the clock with the heatsink installed and fan at full blast (I predict miniature reenactment of 'The China Syndrome' or Chernobyl aftermath).There's the Kaboom--Too bad they performed the test on only a single PC, with the heatsink removed.

February 5, 200620 yr Check out the INTEL version http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2002543555041596448
February 5, 200620 yr Those are really interesting as I had a client bring in her computer that wouldn't work so I could fix it well the AMD Athlon was completely melted as well as part of the Heatsink. I need to show her those so she will learn why you don't unplug the "Noisy Fan"
February 9, 200620 yr curerently video playback not available in yuor country bla bla bla was not expected from google
February 10, 200620 yr unfortunatly... these are obviously fake...in the AMD one there is a guy under the table doing something right before his buddy pulls off the heatsink....and the Intel one is ignighted with electronic ignition (like the ones model rockets use)... look closely, you can see the wires for it hanging in the background.... sorry to spoil your fun though :-|~Dave
February 10, 200620 yr Ahh no wonder I couldn't mimic that. I guess I tried with a dozen or so crap boards. All I could get is extreme melt down. lol
