Thanks for the AMA. I built my PC with the i5 2400 and it's been brilliant for gaming.

My question is, will Intel continue to lock OC capabilities in non K Cpus in the near future? are there any plans to unlock it for models once they get outdated? (for e.g., my CPU in an H67 motherboard).

Second is, from a design point of view, would combining the chipset and CPUs (that raised the hackles of everyone online) offer substantial benefits performance wise?

Third, what are the fab labs like? I imagine them to be something out of 2001: a space odyssey.

Thanks for the brilliant job you guys have been doing since the Conroe days :D

Thanks so much for replying. My cousin has been working in Intel for more than 10 years now. I used to taunt her back when I had an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ PC. She laughed and mocked me when the E6600 was released :)

Complete N00b question here. How do you safeguard your design secrets? What prevents AMD (theoretically) from buying an Intel CPU and open it up and put it under electron microscopes and reverse engineer tech?

Cheers

Hi Max.

Saw you at the Dubai Comic Con last year, and I'll never forget the Xmen Theme orchestra you led :)

You answered my question on DC/Marvel movies back then.

What did you think of The Man of Steel? And Affleck as Batman?

Thank Apex Writer!
