It's essentially a 50+% performance boost.
I wonder how a 4+ GHz Core 2 Quad architecture compare to something like an i5-2500 or a similarly clocked 1st get i5/i7 with same core and thread count (so I guess no i5's then, lol ).
I still haven't upgraded the 2x E5606 CPUs in my Precision T7500, and looks like TS or SetFSB can't do anything to OC. Nonetheless, 2 x 4 cores x ~2.15 GHz is easily stomping a 2nd gen i7 without any OC in multi-core loads. Not to mention none of the cores on my E5605 CPUs are going past 45C - and that's with stock heatsinks.
