It is a very impressive improvement....though there are many apps/benches where the difference wouldn't be so great. I do find that(at same clocks) it's "snappier" than my E6600 ..even just tooling around in Windows.. i imagine that the 6MB L2 is responsible for a lot of the improvements. It's nice to know that when SSE4 enhanced apps come out... this baby should produce a really nice speedup compared to Conroe.
