I thought their 500 Ghz number was just for rediculous press teasing, like the people who use lHe to push AMD chips to ~10 Ghz. The 350 Ghz 'at room temperature' insinuation is the most interesting to me. > It also sounds like it's a single transistor.

A single-transistor test on a single chip would be both ludicrous and incomparable. > I also suspsect that the community is not ready to transition to > liquid-cooled systems. I rather assumed 'at room temperature' implied a standard heat sink and fan. Perhaps there's not enough information in that article to draw a conclusion from. -- David W.
