what is the main differences between pentium 4 dual core and core 2 duo processors? are the core 2 duo's alot faster? for example, you can get a pentium 4 dual core 3.2ghz so that would make it 6.4ghz. However you can get a E6600 core 2 duo processor which is 2x 2.4ghz = 4.8ghz. But why isn't the pentium faster? please can someone explain this please. I am building another computer for myself and not wanting to spend much. Dual core pentium 4's seem alot cheaper than core duo so would it be worth my getting one of those?
thanks.
thanks.
