  • Actually it's profoundly common to find chips that can overclock, especially 200 mhz. You can sneeze and overclock a modern desktop processor that much. With better cooling, you can overclock a modern notebook processor to stratospheric levels. It has to do with reliability, power consumption, and yield. I'd bet that some of these Atoms could run at 2Ghz or more, but they can't consistently manufacture those parts enough to want to warranty them at that speed, and they run cooler at 1.6 than they do at 1.8.
  • Right. What surprises me isn't the fact that you can overclock the device...
    it's the fact that two of the first manufacturers to include the chip in
    their machines are including a hardware button that will do it for you.
    Typically you need to install software or go into the BIOS to overclock a
    CPU.
  • goodness.. when will ASUS anounce the release date for the 901 and 1000 in the US. The wait is driving me crazy, I can't wait for the better preformance and battery life.
  • Amen, the wait is killing me too! I'm even going to make a custom pocket in my jacket so I can have it on me at all times :)
  • This is ridiculous. It's June 20th; where can I buy an Eee PC 901!?
