Cumine 1.133GHz parts have an asymmetric Vcc spec. of 1.8V +.04V/-.08V

The tight upper tolerance on the voltage means two things:
1)Intel doesn't feel its safe to raise the voltage a smidgeon more. Therefore, they won't be able to come out with a higher speed grade by boosting Vcc.
2)It places extra requirements on the power supply -- if its output is just 0.05 volts too high, your $1,000 P3 may blow out.
