....Major thread bump? You should create your own thread to ask questions like that. But the Core 2 quad is the same speed, and has twice as many cores, so obviously a core 2 quad.

I wonder if the original poster is still happy with their machine they built

I ended up with the duo.... ... I realized i'm going to game ALOT, but also download alot of music... so i don't REALLY need a quad, so i went with the duo E7400

big mistake... imo

Yes I know, but I`m asking because I´ve read that games and applications that are not programed to work with 4 cores but with 2 seem to have a lower performance comparing with 2 cores .
I don´t know if that´s correct I hope someone can help me...
Anyway, thanks for your help.
