Re: That 23% boost over current P4 performance seems a lot less than the numbers implied by the recent reviews.

Probably because CoD2 is more GPU bound than most other benchmarks so CPU performance increases are less noticeable. In the Anandtech FX-60 review the 955XE was basically as fast as the X2 4800+, FX-57, and FX-60. It's probably one of the few benchmarks they could mention the current P4 and not make it sound too bad. :)
