Intel Core 2 Gaming Performance
The battle for the best dual core, went from hot to nuclear.
Intel is attempting to leap frog rival AMD with their new Core 2 CPU's. The CPU segment of the market has always been competive, now it is just plain manic. That's good news for us, the consumer, as these two giants will slug it out for best price and performance in an effort to get a sale.
Anytime, there is that much competition, the consumer wins. The only choice facing us now is when to jump into the fray and purchase a CPU and from who.
"Let's just cut to the chase. You will see a lot of gaming benchmarks today that just simply lie to you. That is right, you will see frames per second numbers that are at best total BS, and at their worst a terrible representation of what difference a new Intel Core 2 processor will make in your gaming experience. The old ways of video game benchmarking do little to tell you about exactly how a new CPU will affect how you play your games or what experience your system supplies to you. Having more CPU power is a very cool thing, but being able to utilize it is not an easy thing to do nowadays."
