I hope you're right. The overclocking that I've seen so far can only push the
1.8 Ghz opteron to about 2Ghz with air cooling and only 2.2Ghz using liquid
nitrogen (!) cooling. Hopefully, the obstacles AMD needs to overclome to get to
the higher clock speeds are not too significant, because thus far the situation
does not inspire confidence.
