This is an overclockers dream CPU. AMD's have always given you a bigger bang for your buck than Intel. Overclocking gives you the cheapest upgrade. When these two things coming together it's fun time!

AMD is selling these black beauties to the retailers at $136 each. Not sure how much they will be once they get down to us the users. I reckon that with normal cooling these chips should clock some where around 3.5GHz. Exotic cooling like water could get you around 3.7GHz...

I know that Intel out perform AMD on the bench marks but I don't give a fook how many cores you running 3.7GHz rocks!!!
