Wow...check out the performance and energy use from this leaked review. This uses around the same power as C2Q at the same speed and runs cooler than the PHII, C2Q, or current i7/i5.

This thing will be a beast...

Intel's 32nm magic at work. 50% more cores, same clock speed, decent power consumption and cooler temps. AMD's Thuban at 45nm might be competitive with an i7, but most likely will be nowhere near Gulftown in all its glory in that leaked review.

Thats pretty dang nice.

Now if only they could come up with a better stock heatsink design. Why cant they just use a amd type mounting system????????
