Ive been looking at reviews of the Core 2 Duo Processors and the Core 2 Duo 6600 seems to be on par with the Amd 64 4600+

Now I currently have a Barton 2800+ will I notice a massive increase in CPu power if i go for the Core2 Due 6600?

Is there a Core2 Duo CPU which is the same comparable speed as my current CPU, or will any Core2Duo be an improvement?

What about temperatures?
This is really my main concern here - the base temp of the Chip

AMDs are known to run hot - will the Core 2 Duo run cooler?
