Just got one of these for £40 - could this be the next "wolf in a sheep's clothing" CPU that is amazing for stupid overclocks? I have been told I can get 5.5 on air, from 3.46Ghz. Not a bad jump!

It has a 512kb cache, and runs a 533MHz FSB. It is a Cedar Mill core.

If the performance is upto scratch, maybe we have a budget single-core Conroe killer?!

Will keep you posted!
 
Just to let you know I managed 5.30GHz, at 1.6v with the Freezer 7 Pro. Temps were 56 under load, and 43 at idle.

Super PI times are 27s to 1M digits, not bad for a £40 CPU!

My E6600 at 3.4 does that in 13 secs, me old Opteron 144 at 2.4Ghz 1.25v does it in 33secs, and it can be run at 2.7Ghz stock volts in a better board, extra 300MHz might come close to your 5Ghz.
