RDM, Kash, PB and all: Read this and draw the conclusion:

Below is taken from Q&A found at kryotech.com regarding the 1ghz demo. Click on Super-G section to get the whole Q&A.
***********************************************

Q21: Is this "overclocking?"

A21: No. Overclocking usually involves running the processor outside of the manufacturer specifications.
KryoTech provides a total engineering solution that controls the processor temperature and enables the
AMD-K7 to run faster within AMD's specifications.

Q22: Is the AMD-K7 inside the Super-G a special processor? Has it been enhanced or optimized for
low temperature operation?

A22: The AMD-K7 processor inside the Super-G is a standard high-speed part from AMD's .25 micron fab in
Austin, Texas. It has not been enhanced or optimized for low temperature operation, either in terms of the
manufacturing process or the microprocessor design rules.
**************************************

So, the chip inside is a standard 0.25 part. Real encouraging!!
