Intel Pentium D vs Intel core 2 duo ?

[Apokalipse]

it completes instructions in less clock cycles

a Pentium 4 might take 36 clock cycles to complete an instruction, but a Core 2 Duo might only take 10 or 12, with the same instruction

Yep.

Pentium 4 < Pentium D < Athlon 64 < Core Duo < Core 2 Duo

Cool

Does anyone here own a core 2 duo cause I want to know how good they're for gaming.

Core 2 Duo is the best processor out right now, and beats everything in all areas.
