Any idea where I can get more benchmarks?

I recently read a processor comparison.

Two of the processors are I3 530 Clarkdale and the AMD Phenom II 965.

The review http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=3724&p=5 Was pretty good and considering its length I understand some issues don't get put in, aren't thought about, or enough people just flat out don't care.

However, I was wondering if anyone had any more benchmarks between the I3 and 965. I realize one is dual and one is quad.. However, both are highly overclockable.. I would die to see some in depth comparison between the two. Even a 955 would be a great comparison. I would love to see gaming performance for both factory clocked, overclocked (reasonably overclocked to decent settings, that aren't gunna cut the life of the parts short).

I would love to see their performance based on clock, overclock (highest possible safe overclock with factory equipment) And then possibly overclocked with aftermarket equipment.

The biggst thing I want to see with overclocking in mind is stable clockspeeds run "24/7" that won't cut the parts life short.

There's a thread where someone OC'd to 4.8ghz and compared to a 3.8Ghz (IIRC) 965.
965 still beat it at pretty much everything by a sizable margin, except games (where "fast enough" is all that matters). For things that utilize more of the processor (like encoding) the 965 really pulled ahead.

I'll see if I can find it.
