"The general consensus seems to be that the E4300 will be based on Intel’s Allendale core currently used on the E6300 and E6400, with the CPU sporting a 2MB L2 cache."
I thought Intel considers the E6300 and E6400 as Conroe (has VT, 1/2 of 4MB cache disable) and not the Allendate core (2MB cache, no VT)?

Nope, 6300/6400 is Allendale, check the link...

CPU-Z is not the most accurate ap. Everest shows the 6400 as a Conroe.
Intel doc http://www.intel.com/design/processor/specupdt/313279.htm
lists this CPU and that doc lists them in the same family and model with the same processor signature as the 6600, etc. Also it refers to a Conroe doc for the BIOS.
This doc isn't definitive, so I was hoping there would be something official from Intel...

» ATI seems poized for future
From this article it seems ATI is more ready for the future than nVidia. Which is a complete turn-around from past.

I was amazed this week at what ATI is doing with the Folding@Home group: http://folding.stanford.edu/ getting a 20x to 30x processing increase by using ATI's awesome archecture.

Anyway, excellent preview of upcoming technology I thought. I'm hoping I can get away with skipping the entire DDR2 memory generation, though that will probably only work if Intel comes out with a DDR3 chipset soon enough as I don't think I can wait until '08 for AMD.

Also, I saw that there's rumors of an NVidia water cooler again. I hope the rumors turn out to be true this time especially if they can get the cost down close to that of an air cooler. Putting on my own water block now adds another $100 to the cost of an already very expensive gaming card and makes it difficult to upgrade, but it is well worth the addition cost in my opinion not to have the loud whine of the fan or worse have the fan fail after a year of continuous use.
