conroe or amd

Put it in the test then. Starting with super pi.. Show your cpu-z when you use super pi . then test it in 3dmark06 and see what cpu score you get. and compare that to conroe E6400

The only thing different about the E6300 and E6400 is 200 - 300 Mhz.

that doesnt mean anything scores in stress test is what matters. extra ghz is nothing compare the other conroes

The only thing that is different about the Allendales and Conroes are the fact that Conroe's have an extra 2MB cache, which has been proven to give un-noticeable improvements.

In Super Pi 1M, I get 16.394 seconds.

Sure at what stock speed.

I can't remember exactly, it was in the 3.3 - 3.5 Ghz region.

Conroes overclocked at 3.3-3.4 ghz will get 14-13 seconds in super pi. Thats means since your processor start off with 1.8ghz it bottlenecks when it reaches 3.0+ ghz so this why your getting low in super pi.

What? Cutting out other factors, any two processors based on the same core will perform the same clock-for-clock. And anyway, it's just superpi, benchmarks don't say much about real world performance.

I'm sorry, but there is NO difference in these processors apart from an extra 2MB of L2 Cache and clock speed. The extra 2MB shows that it does not give a great deal of extra performance:

Which leaves out the clock speed. Since these processors are using the exact same core, just as 34erd said, they are both going to perform around the same, whether at 2.0Ghz or 3.0Ghz.
 
a core 2 duo at 2.4ghz is approximately as good as an athlon 64 X2 @ 3ghz.. assuming it has 4mb of cache which no athlon 64 X2 does.
