Its wrth it at the moment as they are miles ahead, the X2's just cant compete with the Core2's on perfromance. | |

It really depends what you spend though, like I said with the Core2's you really need to spend a little more on the motherboard to get the full potential out of them. | |

you cannot say the AMD's are anywhere near as good as the Intels, even for overclocking. | |

also intel motherbards never meet my needs whereas Asus AM2 one at the minute are some of the best boards i have ever used | |

i disagree, for the money i'd sooner have AMD. They are cheaper, and overclock very well, and if you can afford it the FX chip is superb. | |

conroes kick the shit out of the amd chips :) I dont think amd can get close to intel at the moment, intel just keeps doubling what it has each time amd make a step closer | |

Dont go AMD if you can afford an Intel Core 2 Duo...they are much much better at the moment. | |

a dual core 2.6 will still beat a single core 2.6 on ANY application | |

a dual core 2.6 is still a 2.6 processor not a 1.3 :lol: | |

well, ive been reading up on cpu's and having a dual core processor at the moment is abit pointless because so few programs / games use it at the moment and because they will only use one core u are effectivley only using half of the cpu. | |
