doug, the 60C gigamine brick-sized heatsink doesn't count as "special cooling technology" either, I imagine. As I posted on the other thread, my take is that it's about midway between the 18-month old IDF gigamine with "special cooling" and the 6-month old IDF gigamine with slightly less special cooling. Turning up the crank seems to indicate that it's not quite up to the standards of the pre-paper launch gigamine, not to mention that it wasn't "boxed and ready to ship".

Cheers, Dan.

Re: ""The demonstration began with a 1.5GHz chip; its clock speed was raised to 2GHz. The chip was air cooled, without special cooling technology."
It's not a liquid nitrogen chip, but an air cooled chip. "

Mani's rules prohibit you from posting any Intel facts that may conflict with AMD fantasies.

Please observe this in future posts.
