Pentium Dual Core E6300 Spotted

also amd is coming out with a whole bunch of new cpus based off the phenom II
 
Well, the neoseeker review shows the 9600 barely competing with the E4300 in games.
the old 6300 beats the 4300. so yeah unless you really need the multitasking its kinda one sided. though, my 6300 clocked at 2.8 which is a pretty good thing to compare to atm is great with multi tasking. ive never had a problem with it, and i multitask a shitload.
 
Multi-Tasking is probably not the best term for BTA and I to use when describing where the 9600 would shine over one of the dual-core counterparts at $90. Where the 9600 would shine over something like the E6300 or X2 6000+ would be in applications that take advantage of 4 cores. Obviously, most games do not do this, most newer games take advantage of dual cores pretty nicely, but show little improvement with quad-cores.

What most consider multi-tasking is really something that single-core processors could handle without breaking much of a sweat. Surfing the net, while listening to music, while burning a DVD, and IMing someone is not multi-tasking that requires a quad-core, or even a dual core.

I use the adobe suite frequently, that stuff defeintly rapes resources and definitly defines multitasking.
 
Tetsuo :p

I got my lowly E6300 to 3.9ghz,I might grab myself on of these if they're cheap in the uk just to see how far i can push it.

don't bother, keep your old E6300...

The new one is not good in OC, cause I'm OCing it :banghead:
 
I have a e6750 now ;)

I sold the e6300 with the wondeful p5b-dlx ages ago,i miss that combo,it was awesome.
