Actually those cpus cost me 100USD each, not 1500USD

Of course Gainstown is faster, as it should be, it's just that I don't think it is fast enough to recieve all the "omg wtf bbq" remarks and no critical approach to the numbers provided. That's the reason I compared in the first place.

I'll check it out, just don't have time atm.
Can we assume that nehalem is an improvement over the yorkfields/harpertowns no matter what percentage it is?
If we assume that, then you pick a series of 3-4 benchmarks and you run with your AMD setup and I'll run with my "slower than Nehalem" Harpertown setup and we'll look at the results.
I am on air cooling and at 3404mhz so not "Xtreme" by anyones definition.
Fair enough?
