Like I stated an average chip as yours via your claims appears to be better than all the decent core 2 duo's on air does 3.6 air with the best air cooling possible.

If i had to guess deneb probably need's 600mhz over non xtreme I7's to be competitive which is why its priced there. It appears from what ive seen those average 4.2 on air, while this is an advantage it also appears from what i've read ( and I mentioned this to movieman quite some time ago ) that with the inclusion of an onboard MMC it also brought some form of coldbug. Juries still out IMO.

This leaves a perfect oppurtunity for AMD and I think they knew this and have exploited it.
