Even tho I think this is a gimmick by AMD, kind of like the TWKR which was limited, it's not a bad idea really but the price is way to high imo.

We all clock our CPU's up anyway so why not just be able to buy them all clocked up. I hardly think that this will be air coolable and will most likely need water cooling so I expect they might get a fair number of RMA's from people sticking stock air coolers on it and just plain not knowing any better fry their chips.

All my clients but just a few buy machines from me with HT turned off so they are getting 6 cores @ 5.0ghz with a 3970x so a fully clocked 8 core chip if it performs well enough might gather a few to look at them anyway.
