Core i7-based MacBook Pro strutting its specs

  
 

According to the results, what you're looking at above are the numbers for the MacBook Pro 6,1, sporting a nastified Intel Core i7 (dual core, not quad) 620M (Arrandale) percolating along at 2.66GHz. Other curious points here are the 4.8GHz FSB, which sounds a little screwy to us, and a final GeekBench score of 5260, which makes current MBPs clocked at the same speed look like your grandfather with a walker (those ranges hover around 3700-4000 on average). The laptop in question is also allegedly running a fresh version of Snow Leopard (build 10C3067 of 10.6.2), which certainly makes sense if someone is out there benching a new Apple product, though it's not a number we can verify.The processor shown is listed as an Intel Core i7 M 620 running at 2.66GHz with Turbo frequency up to 3.33 GHz. The Core i7 M 620 is a high end dual core processor with Turbo Boost and Hyperthreading technology.

If you are in to get a MacBook Pro, hold off from buying one as there is now a high possibility of these new MacBook Pro’s with Core i5 and Core i7 chipsets to hit the retail shelves much sooner than expected. [via Geekbench, MacRumors]
