What you must realise is at any point in time AMD/Intel is making the fastest
chips possible. Even if they are producing lower 'rated' chips, they have the
fastest cores available "marked down" to that speed. Some of the Athlon XP 1700+
chips have 2.4GHz cores, and run that absolutely flawlessly. I get these chips
hand-picked. Now, if you got one of the very first Palomino Athlon XP 1700+
chips you'll probably have a hard time getting it above 1.65GHz.
