I filled up my dewar with Liquid Nitrogen today, to work on an AMD 1100T research project. The goal was to break 6.0 GHz (which was barely achieved) and compare some benchmarks against some of the 5.0 GHz+ Sandy Bridge systems we have.
I will post some pictures in a little while. It looks like a single core of AMD 1100T @ 6.0 GHz is almost exactly equal to the i5-2500K @ 5.1 GHz on a core-by-core comparison.
Checkers benchmark and pictures to follow...

Setting up the pot to pour the Liquid Nitrogen into...
Starting to accumulate frost at about -100 Celsius on the way down to way below -200 Celsius
The thermistor in the meter can't read below -190 Celsius, and it was "pegged" on this low number throughout all of the test (-189.7 is what it shows on the display)
Completely frosted over
And the checkers benchmark run using Node Count Plus 14 which does perft(14) in 86 seconds, averaging 92.6 million nodes per second at 6.0 GHz running on one core of the AMD 1100T.
