In some tests it appears the 2meg cache, 1.86ghz Core2 Duo can outperform a 3.73Ghz Extreme Edition., the 2.4Ghz can outperform the P4-965 in virtually all tests, and also AMD's FX62 in some tests, not all, but quite a few. The 2.66 pretty much wipes the floor with the FX62, and the 2.93 Core 2 Extreme well nothing compares to it.
They are cool running, low power cpus, which can either use much smaller lighter heatsinks, or if you use a sink designed for the very hit prescott chips, the fan speeds can be reduced so much that you can have a very silent system.

, I love the improvements that many games seem to show in their minimum frame rates. Even games which show little improvement in their maximum frames, seem to show a good improvement in minimum frame rate..
I guess thats not so surprising, as maximum framerate is normally a GPU limitation, while minimum framerate is very often CPU overhead.
