Re: "It would apply to those that are deliberately marked and sold, and speed limited as slower chips . We all know this is done, numerous tests have shown the assorted intel parts run far faster than they are sold at and they have the same heat profile as higher speed chips and the same lifetime. "

You're not serious are you Bill? To demonstrate your claims would require :

#1 a complete test & characterization program on a ultra expensive tester. Not possible without Intel's design database, process characterization files, reliability experiments, and simulation suite.

#2 thousands of hours of extended life test burnin and more extensive characterization reports.

#3 knowledge of propriatary test modes and necessary hooks.

Ain't gonna happen.
