70% percent of the user does not visit this forum and they do not overclock, for normal pc users, i could not see why they will choose intel over amd, unless the "INTEL" mentality still exists after all this year which i am still kinda sick of.

^- then some intel dudes will be sick of ur preference only to AMD ...

dun start a war, benchmarks are only for reference, which 1 u guys likes depends very individually -.- ....

both have pros and cons, if not surely one will fall

try find a sweet spot in price/performance ratio, both can do the job well...

unless u are so filthy rich, u can actually get the most uber expensive stuff, if not ...... make ur choice based on the time u buy, coz after u bought, defintiely the price will change, lol ....

are u really sure about this, a new one or just the second hand one? That price is really low from normal retail price around RM 900-1100...

yeah, and it's hard to find E6300 in that price range too.

I'm an AMD user for years, but this time I think I'll go C2D.

the power draw, the performance on stock speed and the price is just too tempting.

it doesnt cost too much compared to an AMD equivalent either.

I sure hope K10 is a killer, or intel here I come!!

All I can say is wait this post 22nd. That will even out the pricing levels

Lame? All I can say is....wait till Intel slash price

Elmo, you using C2D now or what?

My current AMD rig cant OC for crap, I've got the worst batch of CPU ever. Everyone else is doing far better than I am. Unlucky me.

hope my new C2D setup can OC better.

The main issues is to get whats you best money you can go.

Altought Intel C2D is now very performance speed winning, X2 could winning most people's choices. Considering within same budget, buyers can choose better X2 series which is may outstanding over C2D, Althought no much different, small different matters ..

But if you mention need for speed , then go to 6700 QC and nobody will bothering.

Should the X2 5200+ compare with E6400 ? not 5000+ ATM?

Yes true Rm580 1 week warranty E6600 engineering samples. I think its the one unless you are referring to other thread.

Overall E6600 still outforms X2 5000+....

even AMD X2 6000+ can't beat E6600...

of course e6600 is faster but the price also more expensive

Looks like after Intel price slash, E6600 also RM7xx liao O.O"

Both are just fine to me. For the current tasks that I've faced.

if intel drop price, maybe amd also drop

maybe? they have no choice but to drop again XD
And no more AMD X2 5000+ vs E6400 liao (after Intel price slash)

Its AMD X2 5000+ vs E6600 already.....

from the link that Panda give, ya, Core2Duo outperform the X2 5600+ in the PC Mark, but do you use your pc just to benchmark?
if yes, guess you dont only use PC Mark to benchmark right?
go try out those memory Memory and Floating and see whats happen both got win point, so its win win situation

Well its going to be affordable anyway XD
Wait till the official price slash
