which processor is better?

[SgtMattBaker]

Pentium® 4 Processor 670 with HT Technology (3.80GHz, 800 FSB)

or

Intel® Core™2 Duo processor E6300 (1.86GHz)

i know that by the speed the first one, but whats so different about the core duo?

That is a tough one, HT is kinda like dual core. If your looking to buy though get a E6600 at minimum, cause the E6300 isnt Conroe.

the e6300 is almost like conroe but with only 2mb l2 cache. a gd bargain as it has fantastic overclockablity. i read it can go to 3.3ghz.
