dice / liquid nitrogen runs don't interest me all that much any more since they are unrealistic since most people are not going to get that stuff just to run their chips that fast at least for a long period of a time, but it's just to see how far these chips can go i guess, they should do air cooling / liquid cooling ones

There where AMD's statement somewhere that those CPU will not hit retail and will be distributed by AMD to top overlockers and OC events.

It says right on the chip itself, "Not for sale" :|

I could really care less if I can't buy it.

Default [Legit Reviews] AMD Phenom II 42 TWKR Review

Quote:
The Secret is Out: AMD TWKR CPUs!!
A few weeks ago rumors about an AMD Phenom II X4 TWKR processor hit the internet after a system builder posted a little more than he was supposed to on his private blog. A small metal black box also arrived here at Legit Reviews, but we honored the NDA that we agreed to with AMD and kept our knowledge of the AMD Phenom II Black Edition TWKR processor under wraps.
SOURCE

Finally!

Yeah, I was a little disappointed too. I'm waiting for the hardcore overclockers to post some results.
