[jugeen]

nice photos as always published by WWM THX for sharing!

[SeLecT]

Really nice!

I love the penryns! They are really good clockers!

But why is your 3D Mark 06 score so low?

[TheGoat Eater]

I am anxious to test one when they come out! looking forward to the DFI LanParty DK P35 review!

[Viss]

At last some dual core numbers, thanks ! Looking good.

[hiwa]

really nice cpu

[dinos22]

finally the dual core makes it's way to people

what we REALLY want to know now is FSB FSB FSB FSB FSB FSB FSB FSB

[dpa]

omg... I want one!!! if the fsb is good.. 6Ghz here we/I come..

[Zeus]

Wolfdale looks as promising as Yorkies!

4.7GHz 1M on air is very, very nice!

This cpu will be a hell of a lot cheaper than a QX9650, hmmm...time to start up saving some money.

[victor89]

It seems to be a really good processor - ~4,2Ghz 24/7 air/water cooled? :O

[dpa]

It seems to be a really good processor - ~4,2Ghz 24/7 air/water cooled? :O

more like 4.5Ghz on water.

[PytonOrm]

When this E8500 come out in stores ??? i will buy 2 of same wolfdale

[jmmtn4aj]

God those 8800GTs are sooo sexy

[Bigchrome]

If these were to come out before christmas Intel would make about a quarter of billion from this chip alone.

[nachthymnen]

Wooooooot
I love that chip!!!!

[tdream]

Haha very nice, wonder can quad core do similar.

[Infa]

nope i think not, hence the low FSB walls on quads, you will need an Extreme to get high as this dual does

[Duffy]

wow seeing that just makes me want to spend more money

[scooter.jay]

cant wait to strap my waterblock to one of these. I must admit its nice to finally
see some dualcore scores and i like what i see

[Bigchrome]

I REALLY want one of these





If you want anyone killed

[C Stat B]

Nice! I'm glad to see some 45nm dual core scores. I reckon Intel should release a Dual Core Extreme Edition, people would still buy it. Or failing that, they could release a "Black" Edition with an unlocked multi!

[lazy]

some nice results there... 491*9 with only 1.5vcore is a beauti

[Flinch]

Very nice, but.....engineering samples are far from the reality of what retail will do, and that's presuming we will stay on course with history repeating itself.

[vanovich]

Nice setup and good combo ,yes these wolfdale are an overclockers dream .thanks for sharing WWM .

[PytonOrm]

gotta love see some Dry ice or Ln2 on it
