TRDCorolla said:I think people are forgetting the point here. It is known that a single core may do better at gaming, but that doesn't mean a dual core is a piece of crap CPU that won't play games. Of course it will play games. It can do anything a single core can do, but more.
Sure they can but as you know what is the higest clock speed Dual core 3.4? for intels?
The Pentium single core at 3.8 Is by far better then the Pentium D for gaming period. It is like compairing a single core. So if a game were to come out and lets say the min was 3.5 ghz well that dual core is pretty much FUBAR.
No one is happy settling for less when money is involved so they want the best they can get. Most questions are "geared" towards what is the best. Who beats who. Well in that case since AMD and intel are soo close and you wont really notice the difference in games so for gaming it doesnt matter what ya get. For multitasking you will notice the difference with a Pentium over an AMD in general usage tests. So what one is really the better made chip??? But that being said which is quite logical. I bet you there will be 10 posts saying w/e AMD > INTEL Intel sucks. cause they want those 2 extra FPS in a video game ya know what I mean?
