"Go to the Geekbench Result Browser and compare the the benchmark results yourself.

search for E5540 (which i think is currently the top CPU in the E5xx range but not necessarily the fastest Xeon available) and Core i7 975, the current flagship of the Core i7 series ... or any other CPU you want to compare and see how they fare under 'real world' conditions."
