Im disappointed in many of the reviews.
Im all for comparing it to the coreI7 720, to give gamers an idea if the extra cost pays off for this new technology in games ( which it doesnt as the reviews show)
But half the reviews have as only core2quad competitor the Q9650, while the PII 955 is 10 bucks cheaper than the Q9550, i expect the 955 to drop in price soon after launch also.
For those who plan to run DDR2, the 940 is back in stock for 189 bucks, thats 5 bucks more than a Q8400....
Glad the PII beats the C2Q in every price range they compete
