X2 vs Core Duo

Best of all, Yohan is a 'crippled' laptop processor with low power requirements, and a slow FSB just 166Mhz Quad pumped to 667

Or to be more clear, its a 'fantastic' laptop processor, but compared to the full features of Conroe its a cripple :)

Conroe has a 266mhz Quad pumped to 1066 FSB, 64bit extensions, and allowed to draw up to 65W of power. Even better, for the price of an FX60, you will probably be not to far away from buying a 3+ghz Conroe Extreme which has a 333mhz Quad pumped fsb :)

Will be nice to know just how far a 'low end' conroe can be pushed.

Damn, I want a Conroe!!! :D
