And you read the power consumption the opposite way. 45nm K10 got MUCH better power consumption. Just like yorkies. Q6600 is quite bad in that area.
Yeah and yorks are 5-6% on average above Kentsfield..So what's your point?
BTW,shouldn't you wait for official retail Deneb reviews to draw a definite conclusion on IPC and power draw?
Also remember that Deneb will get a DDR3 treatment in Q1 that could give a few % boost over DDR2 scores now that we have fast low power DDR3 1333 modules on the market.
