Wow, there is quite a bit of difference between the two there, that is remarkable. Is it because the Q9300 is 45nm while the Q6600 is 65nm?

Yeah, if you read the article theresthatguy submitted, they believe that the architecture of the chip is one of the reasons for better performance.

Not so much because of the smaller die, but because the architecture is refined in the 45nm processors and is more optimized compared to the older 65nm Core 2's.

Make that "S" uppercase. It looks like you're trying to sell two 8800 GTs'.
