One thing that your are right about 4200 Mhz instaed of 5200 Mhz
Also I would like to clarify that the Video Card is overclocked with RivaTuner not CPU

The highest overclock for the 2100+ is only 2175 thats still only 4300mhz by your math
and they sure as hell are using water cooling
look at this thread i've made about this thread on another

we are in agreement (see link) 2cpus do not equal twice the power, the workload is distributed arcoss the two CPUS. I can put two V-8 engines in my truck that doesn't mean i have twice the power. If your running window XP pro which you should for a dual system right click on my computer got too system properties tell me the speed in says on there.
there may be a few program to use twice the power but the whole ponit of SMP is share the workload on the cpus
heres an article on SMP
http://2cpu.com/FAQ/2cpusmpfaq.html
but to say you have twice the power all the time is unreallistic

Why would I want a multiprocessor system if not many apps support SMP?
An SMP-capable Operating System will distribute load as evenly as possible across multiple processors. This makes multitasking very efficient. Way back when I was running a dual P-Pro 200 system overclocked to 233, I played an MP3, burnt a CD, and played Quake 2 all at once without any of those programs hiccupping. On my dual Xeon today, I can encode MP3's, watch videos, burn a CD, and play Quake 3. (The dual monitors help.)
In addition to performance benefits, there are reliability benefits as well. How many times have you had an application crash and hang your system because it's utilizing 100% of your processor? Well, with an SMP system, only once processor would be maxed out, leaving you another processor to close down the errant application. If you like to multitask, you'll find SMP is your new best friend.
