QX6850 @ 5Ghz!!!

Man I wish I had one of these...and liquid nitrogen.

5GHz Quad Core Stable!! The only bottleneck at this stage was not the vitamins, nor the motherboard, nor the CPU, but the thermal paste I used. It's just too solidified to give low thermal resistance at temperatures below -100C. So time to go shopping for the more branded goop!

This processor starts @ about 1G. I wouldn't buy it myself it's way too much money. Instead you should go with the new intel e6850. It's the first of the Core 2 Duo's to hit 3Ghz stock and it also has a 1333Mhz FSB.
Even better it goes for around $300. If I can get a chance to sell my e6700, I would purchase the e6850 in a heart beat. :)
