The Intel Core 2 Extreme quad-core QX9650 also runs at 3.0 GHz and has 12mb of L2 cache and a front side bus of 1333 MHz

Benchmarks indicate a performance of almost 10% increase over the QX6850 (next best processor), and thats not to mention the still decent temperatures it's letting out, but not so sure about the power consumption... The price for this would be around US$1500 though, the same cost as a cheap PC
AMD's pretty much in the dust now. Who knows....maybe AMD will somehow release an octo core or something haha
