With Turbo Boost, the Core i7-870 manages to edge out the Core i7-950, while the Core i5-750 similarly beat the Core i7-920. It would have been very different if Turbo Boost was disabled however, with the Core i7-870 barely better than the Core i7-920. Competition however came from other sources, like the top Core 2 Quad Q9650 and the Phenom II X4 965, which were rather evenly matched against the i5-750 and i7-870 respectively.
With a higher memory frequency (DDR3-1333MHz) for all the Lynnfield processors, it's perhaps no surprise to find them leading the memory section and dispels any doubts that the dual-channel memory controller will be of any hindrance in all but the most extreme use cases.
