there are PLENTY of reasons.
i know lots of them. being the cheapest, best performing for the money is only one of them.
gramma needs a good, solid dual core for whatever grammas do with dual cores. she wants to overclock for as little cash as possible. granny wants 3ghz.
which 60 dollar c2d hits 3ghz? none. cos there are none. dude if you tell me that a 2140 "destroys" a 3600 i will laugh in your face. if i was in your face lol. you know what i mean. money wise that is the closest c2d, and its not even a c2d. it doesnt perform any better, and it still costs more. my 3600 goes toe to toe with any allendale, i ga-rawn-tee...and i would put it in the pepsi challenge with even a 6300, which costs almost 3x as much. as a matter of fact, i'll put it up against any low-mid c2d thats not clocked any higher. i may lose, but i wount lose bad enough for me to forget to laugh about how much money i didnt spend on my computer.
these generalized statements today are driving me crazy.
