6Ghz @ 75w?

My BS meter is on full alert right now.

Can't see this being real.

I have more faith in 2pac coming back than this CPU making an appearance .

6Ghz @ 75w, having a giraffe.

OP why would you even post this, did you really think it was even slightly credible?

Thought it would make for interesting discussion. Like I said above my BS meter is off the charts with this one

6Ghz @ 75w haha

While i would deffo call BS on this rumour to, you cant say 6ghz@75TDP is the failing argument. CPUz doesnt say anything if its stock or someone taking the thing for a testdrive(OCing the bejezes out of it) which would leave the TDP showed at the same as stock.

That is a good point, I guess the original clock speed could be something like 2.6Ghz, but... '25nm' hints that this is bogus. Hopefully some legit Steamroller info will start to leak soon..
