AMD vs Intel - dual

Name: Anonymous 2006-09-07 6:39

Hello,

Witch one is better;

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ 

OR

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400?

I've looked at benchmarks and Core 2 Duo does kick AMD's ass, HOWEVER, E6400 is never on the benchmarks, and I can't afford anything better.
Does it still kick AMD's ass?

OP, I apologize for the others here:

It will let you benchmark the E6400 against all other AMD/Intel offerings.

The E6400 is built off of the Allendale core, so it's not really a true "Conroe".
However, it beats the pants off of the X2 4600+, here's a sample;
Time to RAR a 300 pack of files:
E6400: 2:40
4600+: 3.23
Only the FX-62 from AMD beat it.
