IDF 2007: Intel Demos 5.5GHz+ Quad-Core Yorkfield - New World Records Set
Intel along with XtremeSystems ran a phase-change cooling demo of a ridiculously overclocked 45nm B1 stepping Yorkfield (quad-core Penryn) running at around 5.5GHz. FUGGER and Paul Otellini are on the pictures below. Keep an eye on this thread at XS, for updates.

take THAT phenom!
I hope you know that if AMD goes belly-up, then all innovation from Intel stops, you know?
You'll be using the same 32nm chips 10 years from now unless someone keeps Intel on their toes. ;)
As far as AMD going under. They were in worse shape earlier this year, they're going to continue and probably continue to get stomped for a while. They have innovation in both markets (CPU, GPU) and will bounce back. They also have enough fanboys to keep them alive as long as their products can at least keep up with current requirements.
Me personally, I've owned mostly AMD lately. I prefer Nvidia and AMD. But if Intel pulls/stays ahead and keeps the prices "reasonable" I'll buy them.
Cpu Score

this means he set all those 3dmark records on a SINGLE video card?
