For most ppl over here who are using air or watercooling, DDR1800 w/ tight timings will be more than enough as the CPU core limit won't exceed 4.5-4.6G -- or will it?

Could you imagine if the design incorprated the ability to have CPU Mhz and NB Mhz 1-1. At stock speeds you could use 1333 ram at tight timings with excellent bandwidth, over 4Ghz CPU step up to 1600Mhz tight timings and on up the ladder. Performance would be, I believe phenomenal(No pun intended) Might be a bit closer to Intel in that regard.
