Duel of Dualcores: Wolfdale vs. Phenom X2 vs. Conroe

[villa1n]

Unlike Q6600, X4 got all 4 cores with a shared L3. So no changes from X2, X3 or X4 as such.

With Q6600 vs E6600 you could end up disabling the "wrong" cores. Either with 2 single cores oN MCM with 4MB each, or 2 cores on same with shared 4MB.

Yeah that makes sense, didnt think there was a way to target.. hrm, but in that regard then, with the phenom, are any clock cycles wasted checking the dead cores?
