Which processor is better?

[Cubeox]

Hello, please help me pick:

Intel Pentium D 945 Dual Core Processor (3.40GHz, 800MHz, 2x2MB)

OR

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Processor (1.86GHz, 1066MHz, 2MB)

Thank you!

Pretty sure its the Core 2 Duo. the P D's are a generation behind.

E6300

e6300....no doubt about it..

Core 2 Duo is much better.

Heck, a Core Duo is better than the Pentium D.

Yeah, for some reason the Pentium D series really lacks in performance, even to just Pentium 4's...

Isn't that why they released the C2Ds?

 

[Nitestick]

they released the C2D's because they needed to move on. to the point though, the e6300 is better.
