No cold bug AMD chips are great for that. Shame it doesn't tell much about potential air and closed cycle water. It's well short of the 8+GHz record FX made and that seems to have a 4.4-5GHz stable window.

5.8 on LN2 isnt that impressive since`i am fine to do 5.4 on my air cooler.

benches of some kind would have been nice to see how well llano scales to that speed

I wonder if it can be really stable at 5ghz
