Intel’s Core i5 661 CPU was found below the sizeable LN2 pot and along with two DDR3 memory modules it got a bit crowded on 17x17cm. Despite the physical limitations, which brings a less capable 4-phase power supply Henry managed to push his processor nearly 3 GHz over the stock frequency.
Proof that size doesn’t really matter, and a shared first place in Hwbot.org’s mini-ITX competition.
