Yeah, sure - me, myself and i.
I think most shipped today so I know a couple of people who had them preordered.

Of course it kicked ass in almost every BM but the is my favorite graph.

my post was based on the premise of your claim that "7Ghz is impossible"  It may not be realistic at this point because Core2 Duo has yet to see the real world, but Im sure within a few years (like it took the Prescott) the "conroe" chip will be touching the 7Ghz area.. Ive come to realize not to say "impossible" when referring to computer technology...  shit I remember just a few years back when Bill Gates said nobody will ever need more than 64Mb of ram...
I think you have the wrong guy, I never said it wasn't possible.
7 ghz would be extremely bottlenecked. I would like to see some benchmarks at that speed. Consider the FSB.


Edit: I see what happened, I quoted someone who said that it was not possible. I was just reffereing to what chip that was being discussed in the topic. lol.. I know everything is possible. Whether or not it's efficient or pratical is a differnet thing.

Unfortunately, unless you are running low resolution and crap IQ settings, you won't see a performance gain.  Other than flight sim like games, which are still largely CPU bound, most games are GPU bound at the settings most people use during actual game play.
