    That is pretty awesome, but then again we're only talking about 2 cores, and some massive cooling system that is not even practical for use. But an even better question, how much faster than anything else is this CPU running at this overclock? Does it demolish everything in existence, does it even keep up?

    This is one amazing chip and it's full potential is still being limited by W7 by all indications the future will hold much promise for Zambezi and the next gen. Piledrivers.

    In Real life GHz doesnt mean that the chip is efficent, but still nice record. i bet high end i7 Will still be better maybe when not even overclocked

    These records are similar to our Top Fuel Dragsters, fun to watch and can advance some technologies but in the end very little practical similarities to everyday use.
