But ,you can look forward to some 5-10% just thanks to bigger L2 and other already mention arch. improvements.SSE is another point,and will need apps that support it to take advantage of it.
All the SW and versions was shown, no fancy stuff with custom optimization besides DiVX (But you can download that publicly).

Intel have proven more than once that the benchmarks holds water. Unless you wanna argue against the early Conroe benches too.

SSE enabled games seems to gonna like the supershuffe engine.
