Elmer,

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, and assume that you are trying to be reasonable. Let's go through the facts.

1. AMD is getting significant yield at 1.1GHz, 85C, 1.65V. (Please spare the binsplit vs. yield lecture.)

2. AMD has shown off 1.4GHz cooled Athlons. (Please spare the Kryo vs. AMD lecture.)

3. Cheapo 700 MHz Durons overclock to 1.16GHz.

Anyone with a minimal background in semiconductor manufacturing could take this information and extract the fact that by raising the voltage, and lowering the temperature requirement, it will be possible to get 1.2-1.4GHz parts.

Scumbria

Looking forward to your next nitpicking response.
