    Every now and then Intel and AMD decide to chuck overclockers a particularly tasty treat in the form of a cheap CPU that overclocks like Flavor Flav in a watch factory.

    LMAO!!!

    lol, that is an awsome way to start the article!

    Nice, but...

    They tested one G0 & one B3. You can't draw reasonable conclusions from that. Silly people. Not that the G0 isn't possibly that cool - they've just done nothing to establish that.

    I was jealous of their 3.6GHz with an AFPro, but then I saw the temp of 78C. Think I'll stick with my 3.4GHz with temps around the 50s & an actual Vcore still within the cpu's spec
