Did Intel just release "F" stepping? *edit title*

[Imp]

Looking at processors for sale, a lot of them are listed. They also added them to their website list in the last couple days, kinda sneakily.

http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/info.htm?iid=ipp_procnum+procnuminfo&

The only added feature listed is that bit disable for anti-virus, but an article I read says it also is supposed to have Intel's version of Cool n' Quiet or something like that. Anyone have information on this new stepping?

That's only <i>a small bit</i> (pun intended) of what they need to do to catch up.

I see intel slingshoting ahead of AMD soon and reclaiming the performance crown.

That's fine, think whatever you want. In the meantime, everyone else will be running circles around you with their AMD 64 systems, but hey, enjoy the show anyway.

Well, you'd better bow down and worship! I just finished a 560 "J" CPU on an ASUS board running Kingston DDR2 with a 100mm Aerocool heatsink. Can you say 4.4ghz at 43C? Can you say an <A HREF="http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/you.html" target="_new">Aquamark3</A> score of 86,780 with an X800 card?

Oops sorry, I guess it would be more correct to say "F" stepping as the current are "E". The model # description is where the "J" goes, as in P4 - 550J, etc.
