I'm planning on buying a new pc, but i'm on somewhat of a budget. My last processor was a pentium 4, 3.0. I am very confused with Intel core 2 duo and iv'e tried in my spare time to read up on intels newest processors but still can't figure out what i can do ...sure if i had the money..but i don't.Point is if i'm trying to upgrade to a better pc i want to at least make sure its a tad better :) My goal its to play a upcomming MMORPG, i have everything down except the processor.Would a intel core duo 2, 2mb cache, 2.13 ghz be better, the same, or worse then a pentium 4- 3.0? May sound stupid to most but i'm soo not up to date with anything.Also if worse or the same, would going for a 4mb 2.4 ghz be a big difference? Mind that i'll be mostly gaming on a budget. Last but not always least, should i be looking for somthing else?Sorry the threads title is all wrong, it should be intel core 2 duo vs guy that drank to much rum and eggnog and can't figure out processors.
