Petz,

The 32 bytes per clock cycle SSE load capability implies a significantly improved L2 cache bandwidth, though this is not explicitly stated.

How does it compare to Conroe?

It implies improved L1 bandwidth, which is implied by other items they listed. If L2 bandwidth is not increased, it would be a bottleneck.
