Processor

[nvidia]

which processor is better?
AMD Athlon64 X2 6000+
OR
Intel Core 2 Duo E6700?
and y?

[sysfilez]

i guess E6700 is better.

[Choto Cheeta]

I voted for E6700

though availibility of Both are Hard to find in India (Kolkata).... X2 5200 what they are manage to find, while E6600 is common,

anyway, now Y E6700 is better ??

Here is why, http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/07/...out_athlon_64/

[nvidia]

well the athlon 6000+ runs at 3.0 ghz with 2 Mb L2 cache whereas the e6700 runs at 2.66ghz with 4mb shared l2 cache

That does not tell that 6000+ is better , E6700 will beat it anytime so if you've got the bucks , go for the E6700

Lol.. anyway in that case, E6300 a 1.86 GHz 2 MB L2 procy beats Intel Pentium Dual Core 3.8 GHz with 2x2MB L2 with ease

one more point, even AMD X2 comes with Double of L1 Cache Memory but still C2D's are much faster than X2

but yes, with Normal Desktop computting u wont feel the difference

c'mon evrybody i need more votes

Sounds like u are running for Election

I also have question related to this
will Intel E6700 works faster than Intel Pentium D 3.4Ghz

wow i cant believe someone is asking such a dumb question. of course dufus, it works faster than ur so-called brain also.

[jal_desai]

Intel Core 2 duo... (ting...ting... ting ting)

What about gaming??? AMDs wont make you cry if you use them to play the latest games???

Well like Running top 8800 in SLI with two 30" HD Display !! then i think running top of the line games in Full performance will make some difference !!

[nvidia]

games are good enough in both the pros

[Kniwor]

Is this thread a joke, why are we comparing two random pocessors, the E6700 I guess is much costlier than 6000+.
E6700 is a better processor, the 6000+ should be compared to E6600, and IMO, that too is not true comparison, the different pricing of bare sockets from AMD and Intel make things complicated, reason, AMD still has pins on CPU, and Intel on the sockets.....

hmm... funny aomeone would ask this...
The two processors performance are not even remotely near..
If u got a dual socket motherboard, and put two Pentium D 3.4Ghz in it, it will still loose out to a single E6700.
I hope u get my point now.

[nvidia]

Dude the 6000+ was launched to compete with the e6700 and the fx series of amd pros are targeting the extreme editions of intel although they are no match for the extermes

and dude, how did u reach this conclusion.....

AMD has priced 6000+ equal to 6600, which clearly means it is meant to be compared to E6600....

[nvidia]

dude all amd pros are really less they cost less than their intel counterparts and the price difference is around 5k

hey how u determine which processor is faster. does clock speed does not count so much. howz 2.6GHZ E6700 is faster than 3.GHZ dual core pentium processor. how u guys tell it. plz tel me more. i dont know much abt it

dude, there's much more to clock speed/L2 cache in a processor, the core is what makes the difference, given two processors of same core, and same L2 cache, the one with higher clock speed will be better.....


ho do we decide? we look at the benchmarks of the processors, after years of looking at them continuously, a tree is formed in the mind..lol... u know which is better than other, just go out and look for benchmarks, it's that simple

[goobimama]

The Core 2 Duo is really fast. The lowest Core 2 Duo is faster than the fastest Pentium 4/D. Its because has adopted a new architecture (Core is it?) than the Pentium's "Netburst"(?) so the clock speeds are on a different planes so to speak.

[nvidia]

dude the 3ghz intel pros are all older makes

[fun2sh]

can any1 tell abt processors in detail n how exactly is C2D 1.6Ghz is fater than PD 3.4 Ghz

[vish786]

just wait for amd's new processor release and c tat time intel will b nowhere near amd's proccy

[nvidia]

you are right vish you all have to wait until the amd AM2+ socket pros are in the market then youll see

A Pentium D is just two processors crammed in one single package. So, both the cores operate Individually.
A C2D, on the other hand, is a native dualcore processor, with a total of roughly 291 million transistors.

So, a 4MB Cache in Pentium-D is nothing but 2 x 2MB, but in a C2D, it is 4MB.
This is just like a 1GB RAM giving a better performance than a 2x512MB RAM.

And, the instruction sets in both the processors are completely different.

[nvidia]

a single 1gb ram can never give better performance than 2X512 mb rams

[goobimama]

LOL. EC10304 was dead on until he pulled off that RAM example... Dual channel 512*2 gives much better performance than 1GB*1....

do u hav some basis on tat point .... or r u making just a rough guess
