Ron Myers of AMD demonstrates the power efficiency of "Shanghai" -- the newly launched 45nm Quad Core AMD Opteron processor. Shanghai goes up against Barcelona and the competition at 100% load, 30% and idle.
Yea right. Not really possible. Only CPU I have seen do 5Ghz on air was Intels Terascale, 80 core CPU, but is not mainstream production yet.
And as for the 3DMark record, whoopde freaking do. BTW its not held by AMD. Look it up. Its held by Intels Core i7 965 that was only OCed to 5.2GHz. They have 1K higher score.
@dregothic
The P4 was designed to run at high frequencies with a really crappy IPC in order to take advantage of the MHz myth.
And guess what, the P4 is a single core...
Finally, if 3DMark really means nothing, why bother mentioning the i7 record?

IS THAT THE OGRE FROM QUAKE 1? ? ? ?

no its ok.
i wont bother looking at something that doesnt exist or something i wont ever be able to have.

Google "Terascale". Its a real CPU that Intel developed and tested. Can do the same job as 130 modern CPUs while using only a fraction of the power.
Hell go to Intels website and read up on it.

80 core cpu.
dream on kid.

Actually look it up. Intels Terascale can do 1 TFlop @ 2.5GHz while using 62w. They have yet to release it though. Which sucks.

were just hanging on spectating the fun.
ill upgrade when i see a desktop cpu does a tflop.

And 3DMark means nothing. Its all synthetic.

you could do 5ghz @1.6v on a good cooler.

its the 3Dmark world record you idiot.
