I know this isn't laptop related but I wanted to show you guys the promise that Conroe(and then Merom following) is showing. This cpu runs amazing and clocks pretty darn well. Here is the first round of benchmarks. All bench's are done at the following settings(except 3DMark benchmarks as I did those earlier at 3.4Ghz, I will redo them @ 3.8Ghz later):

E6600 @ 423x9=3.809Ghz, Vcore set in BIOS at 1.4875
Memory at 530Mhz 4-4-4-12 2.1v

Super Pi


SANDRA CPU Arithmetic


SANDRA CPU Multimedia


SANDRA Memory Benchmark


SANDRA Performance Index


3DMark01


3DMark05


3DMark06


PCMark05



Anyway, what do you guys think so far? Any benchmarks you want me to run(as long as they're free)? Let me know, I'm more than happy to run stuff you want me to run. I will be doing dual Prime stable testing tonight to see what speeds it's stable at.

They are not impressive enough to warrant me to buy one to replace my t2400, as of now. Maybe in 2007 for Vista, but for now, my t2400 is more than enough.

I have a t2300 in my Dell laptop and I can assure you that Conroe(and Merom when it's released) will absolutely own even Yonah. The difference in speed from my Core Duo to my Core 2 Duo is amazing. Obviously Conroe doesn't make a difference to you if you're a laptop user, but Merom will. The difference from Yonah to Merom will be significant enough to warrant an upgrade for anyone that needs a fast cpu. If you're happy with your Yonah that's great, but the difference is significant.

Yep, I posted this thread on all the forums i go to I just wanted to show everyone what Conroe will do on a normal, non-tweaked-to-hell system on air cooling. This is something most people should be able to duplicate. Although that depends on if the retail chips clock as well as the ESs do. I'm glad I spent the money on an ES though, it's really paid off!

man, that makes me want to buy a core2duo and make a desktop... i was at microcenter today (sales tax free weekend in MA this weekend) and I was just looking at the e6600 (of which they had at least 5 oem versions that i could see, priced at like $260 or something, or maybe that was the e6400) and the x6800s (i saw like 4 of them just sitting there (inside a locked case of course)), and i was just wishing i had the extra money to shell out, and the extra time to build a system and the extra reasons for needing a desktop...
