currently the new pentium E,budget processor price is around the price the amd hot processor,amd athlon 3800+ x2.but the overclock performance of new pentium E is far far better than the amd athlon x2 performance..

the question is will the pentium take over amd athlon 3800+ x2 or 3600+ x2 for the dual core budget processor??

is not far better 2 b honest, but in most application at stock speed, the intel win. only in games that i loose a bit only. this shows that Core arch is affected heavily by its cache (correct me if im wrong)

AM2 board will still can be used for some years to come
I think its not wise to spend on AM2+ mobo, just some minor add-ons and still no DDR3 support doh.gif

it will be a different matter if u want that super cool feature called "split-power-plane" and HT3.0. HT3.0 will b important if u use the board with X4, since X4 will be very bandwidth hungry (esp if certain application use all 4 cores together).

anyway, lower end of Agena will b interesting for overclockers, but sadly the lowest one will b 2.2GHz. if there's a one with 1.9Ghz and lower price, it will b a kick a$$ for budget and overclockers freak icon_rolleyes.gif

to who want to play dual core 1st when got exra money want change quad core = = have to change board...

hope amd price is enough to VS intel.. if not all go to intel Q6600

if the new k10 perform as wat AMD claim, i doubt anyone will be interested in Core, unless it is selling like wat AMD did to its K8 to counter Core now.
