Holy Iceberg, Batman! Mr Freeze is up to his old tricks again!

Geez, I can't believe what fun these guys get to have and get paid for it to boot! (pun intended ;) ) What's next, taking it into space to use absolute zero as their base temps? I can see the headlines now: "AMD Bulldozer redefines Lunar Landscape!"

Thanks for the article!

I want to see benchmarks with all 8 cores @ 9GHz!

This should be good news for the rest of us. Hopefully the production chips will clock well. It's cool to see the manufacturer setting up an extreme demo like that. Unlike Intel though AMD has seemed to cater to the price conscious enthusiast crowd. Hopefully the launch of these chips will be similar to the awesomeness that was the Athlon 64.

Looking forward to an new build for PCIE 3.0 with AMD.

Thx Guys

A while back the Phenom II breaks past 7GHz. Now, the FX reaches 8.4GHz - Very impressive!
Proud to be an AMD user.
