Would that CPU be able to enter the club? I dont plan to buy it but someone may.

 

I'm not sure if that will be in the spirit of the 3G club, though technically, it should be able to enter. It's like showing up at the Bonneville salt flats with a Bugatti Veyron to go after 200 mph. We know it can do it, so where's the fun?

200 mph is always fun lol

 

Oh I'm sure it is. But it will be a lot more fun if it is done in a little 4 banger, cobbled together at home, tubrocharged to within an inch of its life, fed nitrous, and with bits falling off during the run...like taking a 1.8 GHz processor and making it go 3+ GHz.

 

To take the analogy further, if we equate 200 mph to 3GHz, the fastest I'd ever gone is about 130 mph (speed governor in my A3), then my computer(s) should be running about 1.95 GHz, barely above stock... :P
