well I got a 3.4ghz so If I overclocked.. hmm...

actually 6ghz barrier is like nothing new... servers that have dual Xeon processors (3.2ghz+3.2ghz=6.4ghz and then if you have high cache, and you overclock them u can easily reach 10ghz or more...)

and also AlienWare sells 3.6ghz with enough cache that it clocks at 4.0ghz.. so pretty cool

yep... ive got about 3.6 from my 1000 dollar comp [dude, its a dell] lol i had to say that.... but anyways they have to have that kind of ghz then they will need one damn good coolant AND be in the coldest part of the ice planet of Hoth while using that coolant jsut ot make sure theres no overheatin.... but thats just amazing!

Dude, when I got my custom made computer, in I believe arond july. The maker, who owned his own fucking store, said that 2.8ghz was the max core speed for the pent 4 generation... O'course I am not the master at computers so I got my mother to buy it, it was bout 890$
