Wow did i ask about C2Q Extreme comparison or a normal 2.66Ghz part??Can you read my post at all?
You pick the worst case for C2Q,an EE that has had "issues" with very high power draw at 3+Ghz clocks.Even the QX9650 overclocked (clocks touched,not volts) manages to have a lot lower power draw than a QX9770...
A graph for you.It's from LS:
Watch QX9650 @3Ghz VS Core i7 920 .Core2Q wins in power draw test by a large margin while running at 11% higher clock.
