Tech Link (Processor): "Kentsfield XE on BadAxe, Why Not?"

Another bomb has just been blown off in the open by another enthusiast: hicookie. A Kentsfield XE screenie and benchie has been posted yet again. Conroe XE hasn't even taken its official take off and already, enthusiasts are already playing with the next best thing.
