Hi guys:
I read thru here and you folks know much more on the technical end of this than I do.
I work with the dual socket boards so that's what I tend to look for information on.
Now we know that the Harpertowns(Penryns) get an approximate 10% increase clock for clock over the Clovertown(Kentsfields,C2D) and what I'm hearing is that Nehalem will be 20-30% better clock for clock than the Harpertowns.
That's on pretty good authority.
Not scientific but lets just say this guy knows what he's talking about and no, not someone from this forum.
I also wouldn't stick my neck out and say this if I wasn't pretty damned sure this was true.
