Intel in the GHz Game Again - Skulltrail Hits 5 GHz

Posted by Zonk on Wednesday October 31, 2007 @08:02AM from the spookily-appropriate-code-name dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Intel's Skulltrail dual-socket enthusiast platform has been making the rounds on the web for half a year or so, but we haven't seen many details yet. TG Daily got a close look at an almost complete prototype, which surely sounds almost like a production ready version, judging from the article. Everything that TG Daily describes sounds like Skulltrail PCs will be very limited in availability and insanely expensive. Intel also has said it has developed 'special' Xeon processors with desktop processor attributes just for Skulltrail. These chips are currently running at a stable 5 GHz."

Everything that TG Daily describes sounds like Skulltrail PCs will be very limited in availability and insanely expensive To be purchased using US taxpayer money out of the intelligence budget, no doubt. If only they used these things for good instead of evil.
