New Pentium XE 965 Overclocking Record Set - 7.2Ghz

@ 2006/04/20
The 7.0GHz bar was conquered by the Pentium XE 955 processor with B1 core stepping, so everybody would expect Pentium XE 965 processor with C1 core stepping to show at least some small but convincing frequency boost. Luckily, the hopes came true: one Turkish hardware enthusiast reported about his overclocking success in XtremeSystems.org forum. He managed to bring his dual-core Pentium XE 965 (3.73GHz) processor to work at 7.2GHz with the help of liquid nitrogen cooling system.

"Few years" could be longer then u think, and maybe never come because of multi-core technologie.

you didn't state "in the next few years"

you said "we will never reach 7Ghz..."

of course we WILL reach these speeds.

I repeat : we'll never reach 7 ghz in standard cpus in the next few years
