Really not that great considering that that chip is at 1.63v. If you want to see some real overclocking. Go to Guru3d.com to the ATI video card section and check out Bodar's accomplishments.

I think it was just to see how high the chip will go. You'd have to be mad to run it like that all the time.

Oh please you don't even get great gains from a video card being OCed.

5Ghz seems so excessive and out of the norm.

1.63v is nothing. The 7Ghz core i5 670 was at 2.1v
