Just out of curiosity, does Intel follow AMD in the way that their Opteron's oc better than their x2 line? Or is intel the other way around. I ask this because I want to upgrade to either a Woodcrest or a Conroe, but I haven't seen any benchies between the two, especially the 5130 Woodcrest and the 6600 Conroe.
Any help would be appreciated, I just want any information you may have, I'm not demanding benchmarks, thanks.

Woodcrest in June, yes.
Have given it some thoughts, and i found out, that it would be nice:
1. To have this board: http://www.iwill.net/product_2.asp?p_id=108
2. To put two Woodcrests on it. :D
Only thing is, overclocking. And if it does work to overclock them on that board :)

Yeah, thats kinda weird that people have conroes but not woodcrests yet. Anyway, what about p4's and Xeons. Which were the better oc'ers there? I would assume they would follow the same pattern for the next gen chips. Sorry, but I've never been an Intel guy.
