Very tempting! I'd like to pick up one of these with that new mATX P55 board that EVGA just released. It'd make a nice HTPC!

DirectorC · Dec 9, 2009, 03:33 PM

No reviews out there that I can find. The question is, does it beat an E8400?

Found Intel's bench numbers on 3.33GHz Clarkdale: http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=20419&page=2

IMO it's not fair to compare it to fairly lower clocked CPUs but whatever. It's fast.
