    I'm impressed!!

    I presume cards are still on AIR.
    Is this that new chip you're mentioned before SF3D?? It shows stepping 2, so if it clocks better it's only due to manufacturing improvement

    Final question - when LHe??

    @Sampsa
    WOW is this still on LN2?? Which core is strongest? How high you can push NB?? 4.8GHz+ possible now?

    Yes, graphics cards on air, just pushing CPU. This is the new chip.. not new stepping but latest manufacturing process.

    Hopefully we will get opportunity to test with liquid helium later

    C'mon, if your gonna go for 3D 06 world records is it not a good idea to atleast overclock the cards? You'll be doing Pi runs without tweaking the memory next

    I'm not knocking you, I'd just like to see AMD beat the 06 record, not merely tickle it or pip it to the post by 100points. Everytime I see a great AMD result it's short lived. If it takes three of you, an endless dewar of LN2, a cherry-picked cpu and 6Ghz+ in lab conditions to JUST beat the old record

    Why don't you just ramp those gpu's and put us all out of our misery

    If we don't have to do it.. why should we bother ourselves

    No..next runs will be on LN2. Cards were ready yesterday, but we just liked to see the backups

    And we just tested one new chip yesterday, so...
    You are as good as your samples are!
