5.5GHz on water

With 1.6v they are going to destroy it!! Anyway what is the maximum overclock at voltages below 1.4v for example?? Even then looking at the cost of an E8600 now it is will be better to go with an Intel or AMD quad core.

Ooh that's nice and fast. Probably cost alot too though, more than a dual is worth.

Add the cost of the water cooling on top of that... I never see the point spending so much on water cooling for so little.

Taking a 2Ghz CPU to 3.8GHz on air is a good deal but spending on water cooling to get extra 1.5Ghz is probably not worth it.

So will this appear at around the £200 -250 price point or will it be higher priced?
