Hey Guys. Just wanted to know what the difference between 2nd and 3rd gen core processors in terms of raw performance? Thanks guys.

Anywhere from 5 to 12% depending on what benchmark your using.

5-15% most of the times

For marketing people a bit .... for real world application nothing. When the next stepping comes out and these things match or even better SB overclocks thats when its worth getting Ivy.

With how Intel is flying through chipsets and improving something is always close.
