An overclocker from the Czech Republic somehow managed to get his mitts on an engineering sample of AMD's FX-8130P "Zambezi" processor built around the chip maker's Bulldozer architecture and did what any responsible enthusiast would do. He slapped the 8-core ES chip into his rig, pushed the pedal to the metal, and overclocked it as far it would go on air, which turned out to be 4635.6MHz.
Details on this upcoming part are few and far between, and not a whole lot was revealed in the uploaded CPU-Z screenshots that have been partially blacked out. We know the chip has 8 cores, 8MB of L3 cache, supports DDR3-1866MHz and a handful of instruction sets, and is built on a 32nm manufacturing process. There's no mention of the processor's default clockspeed (only that it runs "no less than 3GHz"), stepping, or revision number.
In any event, the overclock resulted in a Super Pi 1M score of 1.29s with the CPU voltage going a little over 1.5V
