This will be the first Intel Extreme processor in the 45nm Quad-Core series. UPDATE 9/18/07 4PM PST: Intel has announced the name of this 3GHz Yorkfield processor, so this overclocking was done on the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650. The processor we had a chance to see overclocked was a 45nm Yorkfield that was setup to run at 3GHz at default. The processor we saw being overclocked was the quad-core version of Penryn, codenamed Yorkfield, and features a 820m transistor die (it is more or less a pair of Wolfdale dies, which each feature 410m transistors) and a 12MB of L2 cache. This year at IDF, all the buzz is surrounding the 45nm processors and Intel is showing off a number of systems with the Intel X38 Express chipset and these new 45nm processors in an overclocked environment.
