Anand benches Wolfdale against Conroe.

With all the hype I'm surprised by the results of only a 5% increase in performance. Overclocking looks promising though. They say its also not the final stepping. Wasn't too impressed with the power consumption figures. They are good but not great.
I suppose at the end of the day they are good results for what is essentially just a die shrink. Too much hype was the problem.
On another note looks promising for AMD. If Phenom can at least match those figures AMD might stay in buisness after all.
