@toyota: maybe he likes to keep his cpus for 20 years...
Nope only two or three years. I don't care about the longevity of a CPU. I care about data degradation.

even with all the balls out cpu overclocking I have seen there has not been any thread started on resulting data degradation. with a mild oc and no voltage change, you will have nothing but your paranoia to worry about.Nope only two or three years.

That's not what it says at all. You've added words to try and support your position. The review has none of the "of which" shit that you're stating.
"
Results are representative of 100 D2 CPUs that were binned and tested for stability under load; these results will most likely represent retail CPUs.
1. Approximately 50% of CPUs can go up to 4.4~4.5 GHz
2. Approximately 40% of CPUs can go up to 4.6~4.7 GHz
3. Approximately 10% of CPUs can go up to 4.8~5 GHz (50+ multipliers are about 2% of this group)"
So when the review specifically states when they are looking at a % of chips within a segment. As in this case the 2% of the 10% clock range. You need to work on your reading comprehension because HardOCP pretty clearly states 100% of the chips they had can overclock to at least 4.4~4.5 GHz.
