Nothing too surprising, but more benches are always nice I guess, too bad the gaming performance is broken due to improperly installed drivers.

Not like it matters, games don't need Nehalem anyway. Everyone raise your hand those of you who game at 1024x768 or lower! Yeah, thought so.
I'm getting it for everything else instead. How about some generic stuff, winrar, photo editors, ajax web browser applications?
No need for Nehalem yet. Conroe will live forever!!!!!

Hm somehow these results are less impressive than I remember after reading the Anandtech preview.

"we knew the drivers we not installed correctly so we went ahead and beenchmarked the system anyways"
wtf,, what reviewer, with have an ounce of BRAINS, benchmarks a system that is faulty, and can be fixed by simply reinstalling the drivers or contacting said mfg for proper drivers.
hexus,,, ,, ok,, i wont say it....

I'll stick with my quad. Nice Vantage boost, I can see where this score came from:

well i would hope they wouldnt go backwards in any category of performance :P But i think it might have something to do with the way the cache is handled etc for those gains, but overall, single threaded isn't going to be anything astronomical probably 5-10% at most, but multithreaded etc, lol just look at the vantage cpu score.

I see what I see, and you see what you see. I can't make you see what I see, but I can tell you what I see is not what you see. Truth is, we see what we want to see, and what we want to see is what those around us see. And what we don't see is... well, conspiracies.
I am not jumping ship. DDR3+Expensive X58 boards+new chip for minor gains single threaded apps. Don't get me wrong, the chip looks great just not the same jump as the Core 2 was compared to the P4. My Core 2 8400 is plenty and if anything old Yorkie Quads should drop in price. Software needs to catch up. for 99% of users this is way to much power.

With one major exception: supcom with 2000+ units battling it out brings my g92 8800 @ 792/1890/972, and e7200 at 4.05 to it's knees. You'll be seeing drops to like 5-15 fps, when you zoom out (which turns the units into icons), or have the unit groups be stationary, it will go up to 80, pretty obvious proof of a cpu bottleneck. (this is at 1280x1024, and even with the details in supcom at there lowest, you still see large areas of sub 10 fps when 1500+ units are packed onto a 50kmx50km map.

i'm sure alot of the people on this website are part of that 1% minority who want more power.............. I get your point though. The bare truth is that 99% of people could get by with an amd single core, or p4, or even p3, or amd 2500ish, it's only the gamers, benchers, and cad people who stay on the cutting edge. EVen from your standpoint though, at least this will drop yorkfield prices.

The question still remains how, how well will these things clock. They look faster even in single core apps, but will be people be busting super pi records with these, or will the E8600 remain king?
Twice as fast as AMD's best. I ache for them now more than ever.

Support PC gaming. Don't pirate games.
Well games are all technically bottlenecked at the CPU, the minimum framerate dips in games are highly affected by CPU performance. That said, it's usually the brute clock frequency so Nehalem is unlikely to make a difference from the CPU itself, just like the E8xxx series performs as well as Quads at the same clock frequency for all games not named WiC or SC, but its possible tri-channel DDR might give you some minor gains.
