core i3 530 can overclock much better. biggrin.gif
after overclock, it is a nice processor for gaming and folding as well. brows.gif

hehe..really bro??but the cache is quite bothering me..i3 got 4mb cache..
amd got 7mb cache..how then??
i read they said that with a bigger cache the proc can handle a heavy duty..

hmm, but i feel clock speed still essential. biggrin.gif
core i3 530 not so hard to hit above 4ghz.
and 2 core 4 thread. brows.gif
overall have faster architecture.

from ur i dea i got what u r trying to say..
besides, my instinct also want to sell the amd...

haha, just keep the core i3 530.
for the phenom ii x2 550 be, if hit 3.8ghz already need higher vcore.
maybe need more effort and hardware work together to hit 4ghz. unsure.gif
but a 4ghz core i3 530 still faster than a 4ghz phenom ii x2 550 be. tongue.gif
