u can wait but not too long...

but now is still
cheapest dual core is AMD's region, as low as rm240 u can own athlonx2 3600. Intel E4300 still need rm350 (bulk), and Intel mobo is usually more expensive, due to the memory controller being chipset dependant for intel mobo, some cheapo intel mobo will have performance degradation.
so i think, in the lower price segment, amd still wins. But with budget higher than rm400 might as well venture into intel.
