Well it seems intel released a 90nm smithfield once more, with the B0 revision and this bad boy is the overclocking champ of the world.
A dual core processor with a FSB of 133mhz (mem mulit of 4) and a cpu multiplier of 20 this bad boy is capable of 4.1ghz with water cooling. It may not be hyper threaded but it exceeds the FX-60 and the highest P4 EE made to date (both chips being over 1000$) and this bad boy comes in at a light 130$ with free shipping on the egg.
With the zalman 9500 you can get this thing to 3.8ghz on just air, and with water you can squeeze out the extra 300mhz or so.
The thing thats amazing is the voltage... it went from 2.6ghz to 3.3ghz with no voltage change necessary. 1.5V is all thats necessary to get to 3.8ghz. This thing can use DDR2 ram, not sure if it can go DDR2 1066 though.
My grandfather is bulding a new system (hes paying for it and im building it) and it will feature this processor. But I probably will set it to 3.3-3.5ghz after I push that fool to 3.8 on air : )
