Test System Specs Hardware - Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 (2.66GHz) LGA775 - Intel Core 2 Extreme (2.93GHz) LGA775 - Intel Pentium D 950 (3.40GHz) LGA775 - Intel Pentium 4 660 (3.6GHz) LGA775 - AMD Athlon64 3800+ (2.4GHz) AM2 - x2 1024MB Corsair XMS PC2-5400 CAS4 Module(s) - Seagate 250GB 7200RPM (Serial ATAII) - ASUS Radeon X1900XTX (512MB) - Intel D975XBX (Intel X975 Express) - Gigabyte G1975X (Intel X975 Express) - EPoX 5NVA+SLi (NVIDIA nForce 4 SLI) - ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe (nForce 590 SLI) Software - WinXP 32bit - Microsoft Windows XP Pro (SP2) - WinXP 32bit - Intel System Drivers 7.2.2 - WinXP 32bit - NVIDIA nForce4 Intel 8.22 - WinXP 32bit - NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI 9.35 - WinXP 32bit - ATI Catalyst 6.6 The graphs displaying the performance results show most of the test system information to help avoid any confusion. Other information that you may find useful are driver versions used. As you can see, there are five test systems, four of which are Intel with just a single AMD system. Unfortunately, I was unable to obtain an Athlon FX-62 processor in time, which was quite disappointing. Nonetheless, the processors used for comparison should give you a good idea of where these new Intel processors stand.
