Got a Core Duo T2600 (Yonah) processor for benchmarking and overclocking on my AOpen i975xa-YDG board. I think it'll be kinda interesting to see how it stacks up against Core 2 and K8-X2 clock-for-clock.
I consider Core Duo the last and greatest P6 processor. It's basically a dual core Pentium M with SSE3 tacked on. I know many people consider Core 2 to be part of the P6 family, but there are so many differences between it and PM/P6 that I've always thought of Core 2 as a completely new architecture.
