Hey,

Was wondering which Intel CPU would be the closest to the AMD x64 5000 dualcore CPU.

Going to get a new processor and not sure whether to stay AMD or go Intel.

Cheers

C2 cpus really that good? I'm getting offered a good deal on 5600 AMD X2cpu, still go for Intel?

Basically i should rephrase. which CPU would give me the best value for money, per pound. Obviously if i'm going back to Intel i'm going to need a new mobo so i want to be really able to notice the difference if i'm splashing the extra cash.
 
Hmmmmmmmm i'm still thinking amd x2 5600.

The price difference is too much i think. I should point out i'm not needing to be on the bleeding edge of technology all the time either.

Ok think i shall go for the amd 5600. Any one point me to any good review sites. the 5600 isn't on tomshardware becnhies yet.

Thanks guys
