I find it odd that the 2180 with 1MB L2 cache can beat the 6600 with 4MB L2 cache at the same speed???????

Wow, this overclocked E5200 is almost equal to a QX6700 at stock. Pretty neat. (Look at the cost difference for those CPUs!)

Like i thought, this benchmarks is FSB hungry.

Were obviously not talking perfect scaling to the FSB speeds. I'm saying that it must have a good 10-25% increase of the performance. Look at what i was quoting and you'll see the 2180 not only beat the E6600 but did it with 1/4 the cache. Its common knowledge the Core2 architecture is fairly crippled when it has such low cache. Core2's benefit greatly with 2mb rather then 1mb, but it has diminishing returns after 3mb. So, really the only thing that changed was FSB.
