I'm waiting to see some in case results from someone who has these chips after you finish your LN2 record attempting runs because 24/7 like people run is not open bench at all and add 15-20C to the CPU temps you see there and you won't be getting even 4GHz stable and cool enough to run by that standard. Plus NB/MOS/DIMM will also run a lot hotter inside a case with GPU/HDD and so on and you don't eactly run noisy delta fans inside a 24/7 case either. Better cooling and open top we know Wolf will do many MHz by now judging from just Yorky alone.
So it looks like 2-350MHz more 24/7 than C2D with the same cooling is on the cards.
You are absolutely right on that one. I've been thinking about the same thing. I really wanted a Wolfie, and since its 45nm I thought it would OC much higher. But let's see the upcoming tests and reviews. I hope this was only the initial test silicone.
