intel pentium D 940 LGA775 3.2ghz 800fsb 2x2MB cache
or
intel core 2 duo E6300 LGA775 1.86ghz 1066fsb 2MB cache
which one is better for performance and gaming?
also for overclocking...!

| comparison go read it and decided what you think!
gotta love the opening paragraph!! Quote: |
As you will soon see, Intel's new Core 2 lineup has basically made all previous Intel processors worthless. The performance of the new Core 2 CPUs is so much greater, with much lower power consumption, that owners of NetBurst based processors may want to dust off the old drill bits and make some neat looking keychains.

Well i was told the extra 2Mb of cache doesnt make that much of a difference and if the 2.4 Ghz beats the fx62 in 90% of benchmarks i would say the e6300 then wouldnt be far behind and could prolly be OC'd to atleast 2.2-2.4 in which case it would be better than as good as if not a lil better then an fx62, in which case yes, yes its better than a 940.
