Eeee... I'm just curious, why X3 is clocked at 3.67@1.5V if it goes easly 3.8@1.45V ?

AMD Phenom's does any of them have Hyper Threading / ATI's version that is similar or not ?

I don't care about hyper transports only hyper threading 4+4 virtual cores.

[citation][nom]buzznut[/nom]O, BTW isn't 1.5V extremely high for a PhII? I've never taken mine beyond 1.45V. I'm chicken[/citation]

No not really, I pushed my X3 720 BE to 1.55 trying to get 3.8GHz stable. Unfortunately 3.8GHz is just not possible with my setup. Strangely it never went past 55°C and it's rated to go to 73°C.

Nice article, I get little better performance with 3 CPUs and 2 Nvidia GPUs (GTX 295).
