    How much more heat (on average) does the Core™ 2 Extreme processor X9100 ( 3.06GHz 1GHz 6MB ) put out over the Core™ 2 Duo T9400 ( 2.53GHz 1GHz 6MB )?

    Also, is the performance increase worth the added cost? Does anyone have link to a comparison of the performance of the 2 chips?

    Thanks,
    Rich
