Re: "I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, and assume that you are trying to be reasonable"

That makes us even.

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

Where is your evidence to back this up?

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

Like I said last time, So?

Re: "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"

Anyone with more than a minimal background would know that by increasing the voltage and cooling the device actively while running it at such high speeds you would be effecting the reliability of the device to the extent where you wouldn't have a product. You wouldn't have gotten as far as you have in this business without knowing that so I wonder why you keep trying to prove this obviously false notion.

Scumbria - AMD's data sheet specifies a voltage of 1.75 volts for the PGA Athlon (aka Thunderbird) at 900 or 1000 MHz - which is the same as Intel's 1130 MHz Pentium III.
Where did you get your values: '1. AMD is getting significant yield at 1.1GHz, 85C, 1.65V. (Please spare the binsplit vs. yield lecture.)' ?
I recollect that the original Slot A 1000 MHz Athlon required an operating voltage of 1.85 volts.
