Statix-V maximum clock speed

What is the maximum clock speeds that Altera Stratix-V devices can handle in general? 

I have been using stratix-II and it could support clock speed upto 40 MHz.

At the very end I've seen SV go in the 400MHz, maybe 450MHz range. That is difficult to do.  

That being said, if I remember correctly, I would have said Stratix II was probably in the 250MHz range, maybe 300MHz. Everything is design dependent, but you might be able to modify your code to get increase performance. 40MHz as a limit is pretty slow. (Sometimes there are limitations in the design, such as overall latency, that require large combinatorial paths, so again, it's design dependent)
