My friend is giving me a processor, I have two to choose from. I want to choose the faster one, I don't care about which one lasts longer or anything, I just want to know which one is faster, because I'm a gamer.

So the choices are:
- Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00 GHz
- AMD Athlon64 Socket 939 3800+ ( Not X2 !!)

Thank you
 
The Intel E2180 should be the faster of the two. The E2000 series chips are basically Core 2 Duos with only 1MB L2 Cache running on an 800MHz FSB.
 
The pentium dual core will be faster , cos A it is dual core and B as above its just a stripped down C2D
 
can't believe nobody's mentioned this to you but, the e2180 is EASILY overclocked to 3.0Ghz and at that speed matches the e6850, which is about $185. so definitely get that one.
 
im not looking to buy it, as i mentioned some one is giving me one of the two. thas why i compared it, and i was 2 lazy to search which one was more expensive, so i made this thread, DUH
