Reviews are up today for Intels latest, and most sites are showing 4.5Ghz to 5Ghz speeds possible with decent air cooling....
Given that clock for clock, Sandybridge CPU's are between 10-20% faster per cycle, thats the equivalent speed of Mames previous king CPU the E8400 Dual Core running at 5.6Ghz!!!!..plus add in the extra 2 cores that could be equal to about 6GHZ!!!!
Will Dolphin Blue be playable?...lol, probably not..
Anyone planning to buy a Sandybridge CPU for MAME here?....
First one to post some benchmarks, wins a cookie...
