This can only be good news as with reduced idle SS thermal output and higher thermal limit = better overclocking and higher stable overclocks.

The current batch of conroe - celerons are super chips, overclocked on the stock cooler (which is half the size of the standard c2d heatsink) you can hit around 3ghz+, faster than an overclocked fx57

These should clock better than the current batch of e2xxx series cpu's, will be getting one to replace my ageing oc'd 930d server
