    I'm sure it has a market amongst the gaming enthusiasts, but I'm more interested from video encoding p.o.v :cool:

    Interesting. Definitely geared for games, as most of them only use 1 core anyway (while trying to get the most out of it).

    I'd say that there are obvious benefits for other mobile workstations, particularly those using older programs such as CS2 that are not dual core enabled. Either way, it is quite a high clocked processor and will surely provide benefits for many demanding processor users.
