ok, put these processors in the order fastest to slowest/best to lowest:D
Intel® Pentium-4 Processor 630 [3.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit + HT Ready]
Intel® Pentium-D Processor 930 [3.0GHz, Dual-Core, 2x2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit]
AMD Athlon™64 3500+ CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
AMD Athlon™64 X2 3800+ Dual-Core CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
this would help me out a bit, and this would be for gaming so fastest/slowest in gaming.
 
imo:
AMD Athlon™64 X2 3800+ Dual-Core CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
Intel® Pentium-D Processor 930 [3.0GHz, Dual-Core, 2x2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit]
AMD Athlon™64 3500+ CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
Intel® Pentium-4 Processor 630 [3.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit + HT Ready]

take it for a grain of salt, i'm probably wrong...

For gaming only, here is the clear cut list AS OF NOW. When more and more games can utilize dual-cores better, the 3500+ will drop lower.

AMD Athlon™64 3500+ CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
AMD Athlon™64 X2 3800+ Dual-Core CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
Intel® Pentium-D Processor 930 [3.0GHz, Dual-Core, 2x2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit]
Intel® Pentium-4 Processor 630 [3.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB, 64-Bit + HT Ready]

I know I will probably get flamed for putting the 3500+ on top and ahead of the X2 3800+, but it quite simply is a better/faster processor for gaming, overall, at the moment. Obviously, most people would want the X2 3800+ over a 3500+...as would I. The X2 3800+ is clearly a better processor than the 3500+ in overall terms, due to the fact it's dual-core, and in gaming, the X2 3800+ is considered easily "fast enough" by the majority of people. Just my 2 cents.

The good thing is Im smart enought to get a am2 socket, so I can upgrade later to a dual core when "more games are released that utilize there capabilities."
 
Sounds good wicked, that's my plan as well. As you probably know, the AMD dual-cores will drop in price drastically on/around July 23. By the time I figure dual-core would be better for me and gaming...I'm sure they will have dropped lower still.

I suppose just waiting until ~July 23 and picking up a dual-core then would be a good idea as well. Personally, I can't wait that long since I've been planning my build for around 5-6 months now, and their price/performance ratio at that time wouldn't work nearly as well with my (low) budget.
 
yea, I think when the conroes come out, the price will drop, I dont see how you have stood waiting that long, Ive been planning for about 2 weeks now, and its killing me to wait another month or two.........grr.
 
I saw from your other thread you were planning on a Geforce 7600GS. I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm guessing you might have the 3500+ and 7600GS planned? If so, and you are on a tight budget, if possible I would even consider a 3000+ and 7600GT. That combo would definitely beat the other.

The 3000+ would be fast enough that it would be able to handle the 7600GT without the cpu being much of a "weak link," if at all. If you planned on having a single-core cpu as a sort of temporary deal before going dual-core, the 3000+ would probably do just fine. I do realize the 3500+ is only ~$18 more than the 3000+, but if you could stretch out a 7600GT, it would be worth it. Just something to think about.

Why did you call me a fanboy you ordered them the same way i did for gaming and he never asked for all around just for gaming.

Very untrue. That list is complety off I am sorry to say. Look at the rest of this thread and you will see more acurate responses.

:eek: OK....yeah. I'll let you go on believing that, just look at some benchmarks.

Using a Pentium D and a Sempron 3400 (the highest that there is):

Time to encode 182MB VOB:
PD930: 5:32
S3400: 8:38

Sandra CPU Whetstone:
PD930: 7505
S3400: 4140

Sandra CPU Dhrystone:
PD930: 16075
S3400: 8481

3DMark05 CPU:
PD930: 5591
S3400: 4414

Even in gaming, the PD wins, just by smaller margins:

Quake III Team Arena: (FPS)
PD930: 221.0
S3400: 214.2

Doom III 1280:
PD930: 93.0
S3400: 89.4

So do you see now?

Will you learn what you are talking about before you say things?

A Pentium D is a Pentium 4 dual core. It's competitor is the Athlon 64 X2, not the Sempron.

A Celeron D is equal to a Sempron.

I meant to say Turion, even if you still consider that wrong...
That being said, it doesn't really matter what you believe is better, because this is simply my opinion.
I don't trust the benchmarks people do, because My Mac G4 raped my new CoreDuo mac. The G4 was a dual G4 (core duo is dual core, which is supposed to perform better than dual processor), but it had less ram and less clock speed.

I don't personally think Intel dual cores are that good.
Again, it's personall opinion!
