> This really went wrong for intel.

Why? Anyone with a brain knew this was carefully prepared and staged, and a nice muscle-flexing publicity stunt before AMD shows their new 32-core Threadripper.

I get it, it's slow season so journalists have to find news where there aren't any. Regardless of how did they achieve it, running 5GHz on all 28 cores is pretty neat! I am wondering if some 3rd party tries to push new TR to see how far will they go, so that a few "rocket scientists" among us can build similarly overclocked rigs.
