For a large class of algorithms, including almost all encryption, decryption, audio processing and some video processing, the bottleneck is memory bandwidth. And as you know, Conroe's 1333 FSB can't even handle the memory bandwidth of two DDR2-800 channels, let alone a couple PCIe channels, gigabit ethernet and future coprocessors. Oh, I forgot, that's for AMD platforms.
