I've been looking for info on the new instruction set and its impact on benchmarks for programs that will utilize it. I've heard that DivX 6.7 and higher will utilize it as well as TMPEG Express. Does anyone have information regarding the amount of performance increase that it offers? How well does a wolfdale do versus a conroe clocked at similar speeds in a program utilizing SSE4? Would the performance increase be significant enough that an overclocked Wolfdale (say 4.3 Ghz) could do video encoding in these apps as well as a Kentsfield Q6600 overclocked (say 3.5 Ghz)?
I'd really like to see actual benchmarks. Why is Toms so slow at getting out wolfdale benchmarks anyway? I thought for sure they would have an article out by the release of them. Hopefully it means they are working on an update of the CPU charts. Those really need to get the latest games and programs on them to be more useful.
