How hard will it be to get the base clock to 200MHz? I'm wondering how easy/hard it will be to get the 2.66GHz Nehalem to 4.0GHz on air cooling. The actual Nehalem core should be capable of similar (or even better perhaps, because of the deeper pipeline) clocks to Core 2, so the question is whether or not the non-XE versions will be held back as much as a CPU like the Q9300 or Q9450 is held back now.
