Even if AMD has been thinking of bringing the special TWKR version of Phenom II to market there are ways to acquire a Phenom II TWKR 42 processor, if you're not an editor or highly skilled overclocker with connections. The answer is eBay, where AMD's special edition of the processor has appeared.

You are bidding on a brand new, limited edition AMD Phenom II TWKR Black Edition processor, with ALL proceeds benefiting Family Eldercare, a non-profit organization in Austin, Texas who provide essential services for elders, adults with disabilities and those who care for them.

AMD has created a small number of these limited edition “TWKR” processors expressly for the community in appreciation for their record performance feats with Dragon technology and AMD Phenom™ II processors. These processors are designed to reach the utmost performance barriers of the AMD Phenom II processor and operate beyond the specifications of typical production level processors. Under extreme cooling (liquid nitrogen and liquid helium), TWKR processors can reach clock frequencies and near absolute zero temperatures previously unheard of for x86 quad-core processors.
