Benchmark Scores Very high!
The folks over at Project LAN have gotten their hands on the new Intel Wofldale CPU (6 MB L2 Cache). They compare it against the Intel Core2 Duo E6550 in several benchmarks ranging from games to system applications.

Also, take note of the 31% increase in performance for Half-Life 2.

so this cpu is the same as the ones out now just 45nm and 6mb of cache right? man hl2 gets a big boost. im only on a 2mb right now...... maybe i should jump over.

TVdang - the CPU's in your sys specs/sig are only 512K cache, half a meg, not 2MB.

I've just ordered a Q6600 G0 w/ 8MB, lets hope i dont regret it when the 12MB cache quads come out.

The thread starter gave credit to the source he got it from which I think is the point, if he had of got it from HKEPC I am sure he would have given them credit.

I dont Mr. nothing, i like stupid noobs like you are ... :laugh:

I can only assume from your comment that you dont consider yourself a noob then? The comment Dan made did not insult you and yet you feel it appropriate to come into a thread that you now have said that you have not read and insult people, where I come from one of the definitions of a "noob" is one that insults others without even reading the thread through.....tolerance, patience and good manners cost little but it's things that most of us like to see from time to time in this forum. ;)

Looks like SSE4 makes a HUGE performance difference.

I wish they had compared Wolfdale to a Quad-Core CPU.

In any case, now I hope people see why buying an E6750 now and Yorkfield later is better than buying the Q6600 after the price drop (Yorkfield @ 4.2Ghz, 8 threads, 12MB). E6750 @ 4.0Ghz gives the same performance as the Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz (stock) until then anyway.
