Intel Haswell Chip Cranked to 5GHz at Just 0.9V | Maximum PC
Thoughts?
How high can Intel's Core i7 4770K go?
When's the last time you saw a tablet or smartphone overclocked to 5GHz and beyond? The answer is "never" and it probably won't happen for a long, long time yet. On the desktop, well, that's an entirely different story. Not only are high overclocks common, but early looks at overclocking results on Intel's Haswell parts would indicate that the fun is just beginning, and you don't even need exotic cooling to participate.
