Q: Both are dual cores the first one runs at 2.9 Ghz with a FSB of 2000Mhz (Hypertransport w/e) L1 cache of 128+128 and L2 cache of 512x2 It's chipset is 65nm the second one runs at 2.66Ghz with a FSB of 1333mhz L2 Cache of 6mb L1 cache isn't stated but the chipset is 45nm To those who comment on my smoking ****yourself, to those who are talking about finding a computer forum **** yourself for those who want the names of the processors, here are links http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103234 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115038 please tell me your thoughts, As for the 45nm I did think that it might run smoother but is it that much of a difference and does it really outweigh increase in processing speed by the 1st processor, also does the 2000HT make up for the lack in L2 cache memory? Aaron the 2nd one is intel dual core. actually I think this one is better than both.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037
A: just get a intel pentium procceer core quad duo, or centrino. their the best for ms osx. unless you have a mac osx.
