Fake Core i7 MacBook Pro 6,1
There’s a faked GeekBench score of 5260 for an hypothetical MacBook Pro 6,1 with Core i7 620M. The CPU might be a Core i7-620M Mobile, dual-core 2×2.66Ghz with Turbo-boot up to 2×3.33Ghz, and hyperthreading. Some draw conclusions that new MacBook Pro will have Core i7 620M CPU, but they are missing something…
The Geekbench 32bits score associated with this hypothetical MacBook Pro 6,1, equipped woth Core i7-620M Mobile processor is strangely high: it’s 10% over other Geekbench 32bits scores of the same processor under Windows. On other CPU, scores tends to be similar between Mac OS X and Windows, and somewhat even better on Windows computers!
So this might be a prototype of Apple, but it’s more likely an overclocked laptop PC with Mac OS X installed (a hackintosh), as the Mac OS X distro is a current one, and not an internal Mac OS X version, as it is usually the case with new Apple products.
Also notice that the 10.6.2 doesn’t support the GMA HD integrated with new Core ix Mobile CPU, so it’s unlikely that this “MacBook Pro 6,1″ is an Apple product. But Apple will probably unveil new MacBook Pro unibody lineup within Q1′2010 anyway with Core ix CPU.
