CPUs you might want for their ridiculous overclocking headroom: Pentium D 805 (20x multiplier!), E2160, E5800, E8400, Core2Quad Q6600 and something out of the Q9000 family.
The Core2Extreme models with free multiplier are already pricey again, as they were always popular with extreme overclockers.

A terrible post from a member of Congress.
And I don’t want to act as if it would have been better had he said “the left” or “Democrats,” but when you don’t define who “they” is, neo-Nazis see “they” as a dog whistle for Jews.

Important post: my colleague documents an “official, nationwide policy of intimidating and threatening people who attempt to observe and record DHS operations,” or who peacefully and without interference follow and protest them, even though the First Amendment broadly protects doing those things. /1
On Dec. 4, DOJ labeled people who impede or "dox" ICE agents "domestic terrorists." I document how DHS believes following, recording, and protesting agents is "impeding," and has a policy of threatening & arresting ICE observers. That's unconstitutional. www.cato.org/blog/dhs-pol...
