Intel OCAU reviews the new Core 2 Duo line from Intel, and concludes: "Thanks to its new micro-architecture, Core 2 Duo is performing far better than the previous generation dual core Pentium D. An X6800, for example, is between 30% ~ to 40% faster than a Pentium D 955XE. Core 2 Duo is achieving performance in applications and games that has not been seen before with a dual core desktop CPU. In addition Core 2 Duo consumes 40% less power and runs much cooler than Pentium D."

Thanks a lot for the link. I just saw another review at Techreport and so on, boy oh boy the number differences are quite amazing! Intel needs to be truly applauded for this quick turnaround. THeir Israel team is truly amazing.
