By the end of the day or the first two weeks of usage, though, we still believe that a substantial number of users will decide to bite the sour grapes and upgade to one or the other discrete solution. Regardless of its bravour, the iGFX is still too limited for anything but home theater use when it comes to entertainment. This of course begs the question what can be expected from a Clarkdale sans iGFX, that is, just a plain old Nehalem CPU with TurboBoost Technology and Hypertreading. Out of the box 3.6 GHz are nothing to be ashamed of but how will two physical cores stack up against AMD's quad core competition starting at only about 1/2 of of the '661 price tag?
