Well, if it was 3.8 at 2V, that would be an appalling chip.
But, looks pretty good.

Think he meant 1.2v lolz

Should have been 5.5ghz at 2.0v

Search > undervolt brought up 6-7 threads third one down is this (http://forum.novatech.co.uk/showthread.php?t=9893&highlight=undervolt)

Can the i7 chip actually survive 2.0v? I'd have thought without LN2 it would seriously melt...
