hi
i jsut dont know what one to get the price of the new core 2 duo E6300 and the x2 4200 is the about the same and the 950 is not much more poepl been telling me that these new core 2 duo cpu are good so i dont know what one i want to buy i would like to know what one out of the 3 would be the better power for money CPU
 
If you are also purchasing a motherboard also, then go with a Conroe compatible board and get the E6300. Do not, by all means, get a 950, if you are also in the market for a motherboard. The Conroes are so much more superior over their predecessor.

 
yes im also going to buy a motherboard to suit the cpu that i deside to get im building a system i am jsut unsure what cpu would be the best buy for poer to money
 
Overclocker? E6300. 3GHz+ is a 'standard' air cooled overclock, outperforms an overclocked X2 4200+ by far.

Stock? X2 4200+, cheaper mobos mean it's better value.

Then you can eliminate the Pentium D 950 from your list.
 
yeah i think ill go with the E6300 i jsut had a look at a review where it did pretty good motherboards are abit more but you pay for what you get i think i would pay the bit more and get the E6300 i see some people can overclock them over 3Ghz and didnt think it would get anywhere near that at stock Vcore
