Intel has today lanuched it's latest high end CPU, the P4 Extreme Edition running 3.46ghz on a 1066mhz fsb.

Reviews will be appearing around the interweb today, here's a few to get you started, that is if your'e interested in this $1000 monster.

[H]ardOCP - Without a doubt, the Intel 1066MHz bus really brings nothing to the table in terms of today's games. Maybe it will when DDR2 ramps up, but I am not holding my breath. In terms of games, the 1066MHz bus is simply boring. AMD now owns the gaming arena in terms of which CPU company is the gamers' CPU. AMD's is so far ahead in gaming performance that hardcore gamers looking to upgrade are going to flock to AMD Athlon 64 CPUs as they have already started doing. Couple this with the fact that the new 90nm 939-pin Athlon 64 CPUs are starting to hit shelves at 3000+ and 3200+ ratings that will easily overclock to 3800+ levels, and Intel's grasp on gamers is going to further slip away.
