I am wondering if there would be much of a performance diffrence between the Core solo T1400 and the Core 2 Duo E6300 in terms of gaming. I don't usually multi task and dont have any programs running in the background.
Since both processors are almost the same except the C2D is obviously dual-core and has FSB 1066 while the Core Solo is single core and is FSB 667 but I dont think FSB makes a big diffrence.
The reason why I am considering the T1400 is that I can get it very cheap while the e6300 is $200+ CDN. I can also get a s479 mobo fairly cheap.
The e6300 also comes with a higher multiplier of x11 I think, the T1400 is x7 multi.
Anyway I plan on playing some of those high end games like Crysis etc, so if dual core really provides a huge performance benefit I will forget the T1400, but if both are somewhat similar then I could definatly save a good chunk of money going this route.
e6300 + cheapest mobo I can find = ~$300 CDN
T1400 + ASUS N4L-VM Dh = ~$150-$200 (depending how cheap I can get the T1400)
The rest of my setup is o.k. 8800GTS 2GB of ram.
