Intel to roll out 'Penryn' line of processors based on 45 nanometer process

With an open possibility for the user to get a "gain up to 19% more performance" and with the result of overclocking ability of up to 5.9 GHz we've seen at IDF I guess Penryn has very good chances. I expect we'll see much improvement in running virtual machines on X48 with 1600 MHz bus speeds on large amounts of data and queries that VM send to processor during their work. I expect we'll purchase a set of servers for our virtual farm.
