you're really blasting any hope that overclocking could save Phenom

I find 4.4 on only 1.5V almost obscene.

Nice results there!

I do want to ask though... 45nm, 1.5v, and on the first 100% lead free CPU... any thoughts on long term effects of that high a voltage? I see you used 1.66v even.

Now that is quite impressive.
