    In the mean time, while flu complains that Intel is a dead fish, I went and bought one of their newest products. Namely, i5-2500k. This thing is a monster. Stable and under 60 C at full load at 4.6 GHz. From what I gather from overclocking forums and my own experience, virtually every single 2500k and 2600k can break the 5 GHz barrier, provided you have the cooling and you’re willing to risk a potential reduction in life (no one knows that last part for sure, so I’ll err on the side of caution and stay at 4.6.)

    AMD, your move.

    [quote]”I doubt ARM will make inroads into the PC markets”…Hello, did you answer the first question? What are you going to do about the ARM-dominated mobile space? God I hope I’m wrong.

    Honestly, who cares about the embedded market? What is the profit margin on a typical mobile ARM CPU? 50 cents? A dollar? ARM market is heavily commoditized, it is a red-ocean market. The real money is in desktop CPUs, server CPUs, desktop and general-purpose GPUs. There we have a total of three major players, down from four a few years ago. These players make all the right moves to make it appear that the embedded market matters, but it really doesn’t.

    I think server chip have the biggest margin out of them all. Ever wonder how much a server chip cost even in bulk of 1000? With the whole transition to cloud based services, there’s even a higher demand for server chip.

    Ok, I definitely am not going to listen to piggs here anymore…

    Nvda 24.93 +2.71 (12.20%)

    It’s feels like 1999 all over again…(But this time it’s going to be different…Because it always is… heh heh (end sarcasm)…) Looks like gov is pumping up this next bubble again.

    More fvckups at intel..

    http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Intels-BillionDollar-siliconalley-2692556231.html?x=0&.v=2

    Intel is recalling an untold number of high-end desktop PCs because of a design flaw, and expects the problem to cost the company about $1 billion.

    The design flaw affects the Intel 6 (formerly codenamed Cougar Point) support chip, which rides alongside the Sandy Bridge processor on motherboards. The flaw could cause performance problems with devices connected via Serial ATA ports, such as hard drives and DVD drives.
