Paul, what does this mean to the consumer? will a PC with a AMD chip have a shorter life expectancy? Long answer: In essence, AMD is resorting to overclocking tricks to get their speed. If you try to overclock marginal processors you usually have to boost their core voltages to get them to operate reliably. This increases heat and supposedly degrades long-term reliability. Short answer: Yes.
