Yes Fail @ Engadget... This is a month or two old as i've had it for that amount of time maybe older. Yes it's pricey but i tell you something it's well worth the cash!!! i have two quad cores in it with 24GB of ram and some nvidia 295's in QUAD SLI, 4 SSD 120gb.
I get around 12.6ghz of power from my cores nothing has ever maxed it apart from doing a "thresh" test.
If you get this make sure you get a 2000w PSU!!! ofc ;-)
I've you've ever worked with VMware products like ESX, they use a metric like that (adding up the CPU freqs) to measure how much capacity you have/using to run your VMs. I'm not saying it's right or accurate, I'm just pointing out that this seems to be a new kind of trend.

If you believe 2.6GHz*2=5.2GHz you fail at life.

@Inchigh
If you've never maxed out your CPU cycles, aren't you wasting money on all that compute power by definition?
