Wrong. They are nehalem type cores.
they are Westmere, which is a die shrink of the Nehalem BUT what he said is true. these Clarkdale act like a Core 2 duo BUT with HT and Turbo. the 750 does not have HT

after reading this, it is all i needed to read. The i3 5x0/i5 6xx's were aimed at a different market segment which you don't count in. If you don't see that, then that doesn't make other people dumb.

And that market segment is....less performance for more money? Way to go Intel, genious.
What can an I5 6xx do better than the 750? Or let me phrase it this way, in what application would a 600 series I5 be better and worth it to spend more money over the 750?
How is an I3/I5 ANYTHING like core 2 duo? It's completely different architecture. Dedicated cache per core plus a common shared L3 cache is completely different than any core 2.
Intel HAD to price the I5 clarkdale's like they did. If the I3's were under a 100 dollars and the I5's in the 100-200 range it would have priced amd out of the market.
EDIT:
IGP and power consumption are what it does better.
That wouldn't exactly be bad for intel.
A world without Amd would be bad for all of us.
Look at the current state of the Amd Dual's. They're Utter crap.
I7 is already fast, you want to help it encode faster get a SSD or two for raid-0 array.
I still don't get why intel put IGP on the CPU itself, and them even worse take the IMC through the IGP. Why didn't they do it like AMD and put IGP with the mobo chipset? It would have kept memory bandwidth higher.
Always experimenting new things.
If Intel's IGP was a success then you wouldn't be saying this.
Not that I'm contradicting you, but I've never heard of encoding being bottlenecked by HDD write slowness (assuming SSD write speed is even faster than his spinning HDD). I don't even understand how it would be helpful. Random access wouldn't be a factor would it? Maybe transcoding or MPEG2, but it doesn't make sense that H.264 encodes would be write limited (which I'm sure OP is doing).

? I'm quite sure the people at intel knew when they released it that memory performance was a good bit worse on the I3/I5's compared to lynnfields.
What you experiment, and what you release to the public for sale should be two different things!
