The OP



I was just passing along the Anandtech blog as a friendly warning for
those far less knowledgeable about 45nm technology than yourself. You
do work for one of Intel's process-evaluation group no doubt?

You delusions about your vast and far reaching knowledge regarding "45nm
technology" is of no consequence to me. You don't know me, or anyone else
who posts here on a regular basis. So don't presume to. I don't give a ****
if you invented the internet along with your unique ability to "discern
technical competence". I put you in the same league as Skybuck and DaveW.
Actually, I take that back. They do have some redeeming humour qualities
they are unaware of. You are a just a puffed up, self styled "expert" with
zero credibilty. A usenet search of your postings speaks volumes about
your expertise, sources and knowledge base. Like the one back in Feb where
you told First of One that the 8800GTX was an "archaic" technology. Of
course, since you're a long time regular, unlike me who's just a passing
newbie and and have just discovered usenet. You still haven't figured out
how to post to just one group either.

That would imply that you would reach the parts Mean Time Before
Failure, but still might have a servicable life.

Might be an acceptable risk for a gamer... Just as an example using
random numbers:

Suppose the part has a MTBF of 10,000 hours.

A gamer wants some extra speed, knows he's not going to use that CPU
for more than a couple years and overclocks it, lessening the CPU's
life to 7000 hours. That would be a longer term early failure.

Here's a tip. If you use zero volts the CPU will last a lot longer than the
estimated MTBF! g

MTBF is not a lifetime measure. MTBF is a failure probability
during the lifetime period. For example HDDs have a lifetime
of 5 years, and during that time the MTBF holds.

You do leap to the wrong conclusions rather fast, don't you? Been
very long in these newsgroups or are you just a passing newbie?

John Lewis


Passing newbie?....lol....Who's the clown who's never heard of
alt.comp.hardware.overclocking?


Or Phil Weldon, for that matter. How could anyone who claims
an interest in overclocking not know of an established resource like
Phil Weldon?

Luck;
Ken
