Intel's fastest Core 2 Duo, the E8600, runs at 3.33 GHz. But if you're a performance-hungry power user, we found that you can actually increase the chip's efficiency by overclocking it, thanks to 45 nm manufacturing and plenty of built-in headroom. Read more

I'm disinclined to trust manufacturers' example shots because they
usually over-represent the camera, tending to be taken by pros trying to
get the best out of the camera - I want to see what reviewers and,
(ideally) averagely-skilled punters do with it in the field 
However, the pics on the manufacturers' site are pretty poor if that's
the best they can do with it! There seems to be bags of noise on
everything, the focus always looks poor, there seem to be quite a few
JPEG artefacts, and the interpolated 8mp picture looks exactly like
a 4mp picture that's been enlarged by a few per cent a few times in
Photoshop. All in all I am not impressed, I'm afraid.

I couldn't find anything truly in focus in any of the example pictures.
