Except that unfortunately, Intel with Lynnfield and Clarkdale decided to do market segmentation on the VT-d feature. This could be done because both have an integrated northbridge. With Lynnfield, the very common Core i5 750 CPU do not support VT-d, but the Core i7 800 series does. With Clarkdale, the very common Core i3 500 series do not support VT-d, but the Core i5 600 series does, except the 661. Not to mention that in the Core 2 generation, VT-d was available only on Q35/Q45/X38/X48 chipsets.
