HKEPC has managed to get its hands on a low-end 45nm Wolfdale processor and has revealed some interesting info on the upcoming Penryn processor family.

Low end you say.... interesting.
Will wait and see what the prices are like when they make an appearance.

I am under the impression that it'll be the bottom end of the mainstream, top end of the low-end. Whichever it is, the processor benchmarked will be very affordable.

couple of things that are in interest to me : performance, price, and overclock-ability. (not correctly in that order )

Bigger Cache counts while more cores are present hence the Quad cores will profit from increased 1600Mhz fsb and 12mb cache, dual core 6mb Core2's will also benefit but not as much as the quads , as always it will all come down to the more overclock - the more fun.

That second pic just looks a touch to fallac, for some reason.
