Even at -40 degrees? Furthermore, I remember reading at Tom's Hardware that one
could adapt the system to use other chips, so it isn't limited the chip it comes
with. If one used a chip that was naturally faster, wouldn't the dangers of
overclocking be gradually minimized, especially at that temperature?
