with a friend with x58-i7 920 setup we did some tests.. which at least to my eyes seem definitely to be a problem.. even in "real" life benches/games.
The i7 at same clock should trash the Q9650.. but except the very cpu limited 3dmark 06 SM2 test(@1280x1024 resolution..), and a slight...

Check this guys test.
