A couple of days after it's world debut in conjunction with Mac OS X 10.7 (a.k.a. LION), the Geekbench scores are out for both the new Dual Core Sandy Bridge ULV Core i5 and i7 CPUs for the 13" MBAs with the integrated Intel HD 3000 GPU! These are now known as the MacBook Air 4.2 series
Impressive!!!
1.7 Ghz Core i5 (2557M) @ 5400+
1.8 Ghz Core i7 (2677M) @ 5800+
With the Turbo Frequency boost of up to 2.9 Ghz, are we speculating burst scores of about 9,300? Foof!
To put other CPU scores into perspective:
3.06 Ghz Core i3 = 5,600+ | 2.3 Ghz Core i5 = 5900+
