So could this be what was being hidden by in the unboxing videos? Maybe the sticker showed 1.6Ghz and they weren't 100% sure that it would be the final speed.

If its now in full production the only surprise left is the release date.

Almost a 10% boost for the CPU... Yeah, probably won't be noticeable, reminds me of when I over clocked an AMD Athlon back in the day... I think I went from 0.5GHz to 0.6GHz... 20% improvement! LOL

That sounds alright. Neat!
I could see this being noticeable once the second generation of XBLA games come out. Like say a Project Spark 2, or something. :D

So, CPU @ 9.375% increase, GPU @ 6.625% increase... I wonder if they just increased the multiplier or the base speed?

Not to mention that the Kinect has it's own CPU, so there will be little of a hit to overall system performance with it running and in use... I guess it will truly act like a controller.
