Athlon 64 FX-57 is AMD's flagship on the processor market for single core processors. A good description for this processor would be uncompromised as it comes with extreme performance, but also at a very high price. Ironically it is usually those who already have a high end CPU that will invest in a processor such as Athlon 64 FX-57. In the hunt for better performance and higher scores there is no room for compromises



Considering this we handed over an Athlon 64 FX-57 processor to the Swedish overclocking guru, Robert "Crotale" Kihlberg, with one directive. Overclock as much as you can and report back to our readers. Said and done, Robert has with three different types of cooling, air, water phase change, pushed the Athlon 64 FX-57 processor to the limit and the result is something we present to you now in our latest article here at NordicHardware!
