Which processor should I get?
what do you guys think of instead of getting this processor
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115030 getting this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819116036 and overclocking it easily to 2.4-3 ghz according to the review. onyl diff i see is the shared cache and the first one is a core 2 duo, other is just dual core. not sure what the diff exactly is there. but i could use the extra for other things on the computer

The difference between Core2 Duo and Pentium Dual-Core?
They are both the same architecture. They are the same dual-core design, but the Pentium Dual-Core is fused down to 1MB of on-board cache vs 2MB or 4MB on the Core 2 Duo line. The FSB speed of the PDC is also limited to 800Mhz where it up to 1333MHz on the C2D. Pentium Dual-Core is a value brand that fits between single core celeron processors (now also based on the C2D architecture in a single core chip) and the Core 2 Duo line. Do not confuse Pentium Dual-Core with Pentium D. Pentium D is dual P4 processors in one package. Here are some benchmarks The C2D is a much better performer http://www23.tomshardware.com/cpu_20...&chart=419
