I know the Power8 would be a square peg trying to fit in a round hole and expensive as hell, but don't the individual cores clock up to 5Ghz? Ignoring the price issue for a second, wouldn't a Power8 be able to dethrone the G5 for fastest PPC on the desktop?
Dethroning a G5 isn't exactly difficult these days, I expect most high end phones can do it now.
POWER8 should completely annihilate it without going anywhere near 5GHz.
