Scumbria, Re: The fact that a particular part can be overclocked to 700 Mhz under supercooled conditions

At this point, no one knows exactly what is the cooling that
high school kid use.

That I agree 100%.

Scumbria,

I see that you are questioning the yields. Fair.

IMHO, first rule in competing, regardless of whether K7 or Merced or ProductX is going to be a blazing success or not: NEVER UNDERESTIMATE COMPETITION (especially when they are paranoid)

Cheers,
Chuck

SCUMbria - Re: "The fact that a particular part can be overclocked to 700 Mhz under supercooled conditions, does not extrapolate out to passing test at 600 MHz and 85 degrees centigrade."

You forgot the last part of your argument:

"...unless it is an AMD part".
