Although they'll be slow as , no doubt. But even if it only ran at 1Hz, at such a low temp it's still quite amazing.

    Although I dont know how exactly low temps work for such components unlike human/animal tissues, prolly such low temps ain't going to make any CPU really happy by defrosting/warming up certain parts, just like in body's, will warm up faster and might destroy eventual... things

    On the other hand I just cant be sure anyhow, -200, although a CPU will be a bit warmer than that, is already very low. How would the slowing molecules/electrons react then? In the end you'd think the lower the temperature the slower they move, but at LN2 you actually get the records thus far, so why would HE be such a problem all of a sudden As said, I dont know, you've a good point there but where's the border and those aprts in a CPU start to become slower instead of having a potential WR speed?
    Oh emo

    I think you miss the point of kinetic energy. Plus the high voltage that increases it. And then with the highly reduced flexibility at a colder temperature. It wont be slower. It just degrade very very fast as the transitors brake under pressure due to mechanical stress. Its basicly eletromigration and "hot electrons" at an extremely accelerated pace.

    And before you say superconductor. They basicly have the completely opposite goal than CPUs in this matter.
