So what is the Intel "Secret Source"?

[PeteRoy]

In the Don McDonald Digital Home he shows 2 Pentium Extreme Edition (Not Conroe) systems, one is running what he calls "Secret Source" which loaded Battlefield 2 at twice the speed, the other system is the same but without the "Secret Source" which loaded Battlefield 2 slower.

What was that?

You can watch the Don McDonald webcat in that link I gave, in around 50 minutes into that video he will bring 2 gamers and they will both start loading Battlefield 2 on 2 exact systems, only one is running "Intel Secret Source".
