Is there a difference between these?

[Jack Bauer]

Ok this may be a stupid question but is there a difference between these processors. These are the intel core 2 duos. They all have the 4 mb of L2 cache and a difference in clock speed. Is that the only difference or is there something different in the architecture?

here is the link

They are all exactly the same, as you said, the only difference is the clock speed. Unless you want to get technical, then they do have different multipliers.

Ok thats what I thought thanks. I think I should go with the E6320 and overclock it and use that till the true quad cores come out or maybe amd will have something better by then.

What does that have to do with this thread?

I think because hermeslyre linked you to the clock multiplier info on the Wikipedia site. Also, one of those processors is OEM, which means it doesn't come with a heatsink or fan, it's just the processor.

I've always wandered how teh clock multiplier worked. Thx.

No problem. I just recently got into pc tech and have been filling up my head with useless crap like this. Nice to help someone else do the same thing
