The new architecture sounds really impressive, its priced very competitively, and we might have a winner here guys. Not sure if it can take the performance crown with those low clocks, lets hope they ramp it up quick or they OC like mad. Can't wait until Monday!!!

We might have a winner indeed, however I am not impressed with those TDP values. They aren't any better than today's Q6600 does.

They changed how they rate their power ratings so its in par with intel. That could be a consideration.
