Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 or P8600?
(30 Apr 2009)
I am thinking about getting a laptop(customizing). For the CPU I can't decide between a "Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T6400 (2.00GHz/800Mhz FSB/2MB cache)" or a "Intel® Core™ 2 Duo P8600 (2.40GHz/1066Mhz FSB/3MB cache)". The best video card I can get for this laptop would be a 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450. Would I see a difference between the T6400 and P8600 even with that video card? Should I go for the lesser T6400 and save the money if the ATI video card would be the bottleneck?

AMD Phenom II x4 955 or Intel Core 2 Duo E8600
(09 Jun 2009)
Hi guys, i've been reading a lot of mixed opinions on which CPU is better. Im looking to build a pc basically for 3d modeling and rendering, i'm a graphic designer so there will definetly be a lot of multi-tasking involved. I do some gaming but it wouldn't be of prime concern. Im either wanting to buy the 955 or the E8600 but like i said i can't make up my mind. Also if anyone can give me some input on which mobo is nice. (First time building)
Thanks!.

ASUS P5B-E and Core 2 Duo E7600
(03 Jun 2009)
Has anyone tried this combination and does it work without any problems? That seems like a nice upgrade for me, see specs in sig, so I'm thinking about buying one. I don't want to upgrade anything else, just the CPU and BIOS of course.

Pitting The i7 Against The Core 2's
(23 Apr 2009)
...does it dominate gaming?
Now let me begin by saying, i am in no way a very knowledgable person when it comes to pc's. Sure, i am very young, and i am learning more and more every day, after all, computers is my passion. Any of you here who have good experience will know a damn slight more than me about CPU, so anything i get wrong please clear it up. This thread is based purely on what i have read, and am influenced by.
Now, we all know the huge story about the i7, it is, by far, the best cpu...
