We all know that Conroe chips can run with a 1500-1600 fsb without voltage increase if your MB is worth a shit. My 6700 does 3.175ish without any voltage increase. There realisticly should be headroom for faster Conroe chips in the neighborhood of 1500fsb and 3.6 gig if Intel was willing to bump the voltage on higher bin CPUs.
Does anyone fore see Intel doing this when AMD starts Benchmarking the Agena/Kuma? They already did a slight bump on Quad Cores, which I take as a sign that the process has matured and they are getting more stable chips. Also, if P4 D processors could run 65nm transistors at 3.8 gig. with higher voltage, who is to say that Conroe transistors wouldn't be able too.
So who thinks Intel is holding back? Who thinks it is impossible? Who thinks that Intel is not willing to raise the Pwr envelope on their processors high enough to make sure Kuma/Agena benches stay uneventful?
