What's all the fuss man? 3 GHz is better than I expected....when the next revision comes around I'm sure it will have some good numbers.
Keep in mind that this architecture has some promise, as each pair of cores doesn't have to go through an FSB to communicate to each other......it's a true quad core.
They're pretty slow and OC poorly now, but that will get better with time.
