Steve'O better have something good for the WWDC or else the future will look bleek for the G5. I have already seen people OC these chips to 3ghz w/water and 2.8ghz on AIR. I can just see the Cinebench scores of 800+ .

So much for the Pentium D beating AMD to market, looks like I will be Ebaying my Venice core CPU sooner then expected.

FYI...Hector... I just hit 2.7ghz on my Venice 3000+ ...2.7ghz from a $149 CPU ...Fu*king STEAL ..THANK YOU AMD.

That 4400+ sure looks tempting... Pricey, but I don't want single core when dual is available.. and I'm not touching Intel.

Yes, I know. What I ment was that despite how much more expensive dual core currently is compared to single (at least in the case of AMD), I'm getting dual.
