Six cores operating at 1.8GHz is something relatively akin to a single-core processor operating at 10.8GHz. Not a lot? Try HUGE.
I'm working on getting a quad-core 3.0GHz, though, so this isn't quite as powerful as the Phenom I'm getting. But with just one upgrade, they'll have the ol' MHz myth matched magnificently (3.0GHz x 4 = 12GHz, 2.0GHz (which would be the most likely next clock-speed they release) x 6 = 12GHz). Hopefully it's efficient enough to make that clock speed worthwhile. At 40W right now, efficiency doesn't sound like a problem at all, though.
