One item that hasn't seemed to have been noted by anyone is that the 3800 X2 used in the Anandtech review has only half the total L2 cache of the Yonah, so the IPC is actually skewed in AMD's favor even more than suggested. We'd see this if it were possible to compare using AMD's 1MB L2 dualcores at 2.0 Ghz. For instance when running single threaded apps such as Doom 3, Yonah's shared cache 2MB is running against the 3800 X2's 512KB per single thread--four times the cache on Intel's side is required to get close to AMD in fps.
You worry too much ! ;-). Standard Turion and Taylor will do just fine against this product for not only are they cheaper they possess features Yonah doesn't and will still beat it in many applications no matter how many cores Yonah has ! ;-)
