E4300 vs E6300 overclocked

The 6300@3.5Ghz is essentially on par with the 4300@3.47GHz, despite the much higher FSB and memory performance.

Just get me right, i don't want to start a flame war between E6xxx and E4xxx guys, but i for myself have finally settled on buying an E4300 with cheaper memory for total savings of about 110$ here in Germany. The saved chash goes right into an 1950XT->8800GTS upgrade which makes the new rig even more powerful.

E6300 might be faster up to 5% or not, my decision is clear, but may everybody get happy his/her way :D Both systems would be incredibly fast.

Nice. Glad somewhere the E4300 is significantly cheaper.

My problem is that right now, for me, difference in cost between the E4300 and E6300 is basically $0. going with DDR2-667 instead of DDR2-800 is maybe $20-$30. So there's more of a price difference ... I'll stick with the E6300 and E6400.
