New, improved G4 processor from Motorola

[Hammer]

There are rumours they have a 2.5GHz CPU but it was put "on hold" and Apple went to IBM as a result.

One could try over clocking the new G4 for the potential high clock speed i.e. 1.6Ghz, 1.7Ghz, ‘etc’.

If Apple use these CPUs they'll have higher clock speeds, They get to use special "P" versions...

The purpose of extreme over-clocking is to see the potential of the said cores in relation to rumoured speeds.

Refer to http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=14245 as an example for bring rumours into practise (@retail's stage). (PS; this is not the first time i.e. A64/FX @~3.1Ghz point scorers in 3DMark community, but with non-air cooled solutions)

Does PegyII/A1-XE locks Memory/AGP/PCI clock speeds to 133Mhz/66Mhz/33Mhz respectively while increasing CPU’s FSB?

I wonder IF Moto’s PPC 7447A @1.6Ghz** vs IBM’s PPC 970 @1.6Ghz could spark price war similar to AMD vs Intel but at a minor scale i.e. due to products overlap.

**o/c at this time.
