Power6 on System i

I heard from a co-worker, who was at COMMON UK, that Frank Soltis
announced that there were new System p models using the Power 6
technology where the chip speed is 4.7 GHZ with no special cooling
requirements. Apparently Intel could not do this and had to withdraw
their fast processors from the market a while back. He was thrilled.
When they pre-announced last year clock speeds of 4-5 in the press some
analysts called them liars. He seemed vindicated.

He also mentioned to expect new System i models NEXT year using this
technology.
