Increase your budget and get Core 2 duo.I have Pentium D.And i cant see any difference b/w PD and Pentium 4.So go for Core 2 duo.E6300 or E 6400.

pentium D is a superheater.. best wen used to make toasts... :D ..
my pentium D runs at 55-58(idle) n bout 60-65(load)..
if u can.. go for the low end core 2 duo...

While Core2Duo is going to cost a bomb (around 16 to 18000) it does not come with copy protection so any software will run as long as it is compatible with the operating system.

[Darthvader]

Core2 duo 6600 is abt 16,000 but it begins from the 6300 which is a lot cheaper at abt 9-10k

[casanova]

U can use ur old hdd with core 2 duo. C2D is a great choice.

[george101]

well whats d difference b/w c2d and PD

[Pathik]

c2d is a whole lot faster than pd...
also has a much higher cache...

[darklord]

^^ Presler has 4MB L2 cache which is the same amount avlbl in higher end C2D

[Shasanka_Gogoi]

I was hunting the same a few days back. Core 2 Duo for sure, its way faster than Pentium D.
