"Pentium 4 - 3.4 Dual Core" VS "E6600 - CD2.4" , which one faster?
Why? -

AMD chips hammered by Intel Conroe
By INQUIRER staff: Friday 14 July 2006, 07:07
INTEL LIFTED THE VEIL OF Isis, sorry a non disclosure agreement, from its "Conroe" Core 2 Duo and "Extreme" processors with a spate of hardware sites saying it beats up AMD chips.
For example, PC World described the Conroe chips as running "blazingly fast" in its tests - saying they're the fastest chips they've ever seen.
The chips, as we've noted here for some time, get a formal roll out on July 27th, but Intel wants the hardware sites to fanfare its arrival.
Tweaktown says here that the Core 2 and Core 2 Extreme "seem to be everything Intel promised and then some".
The conclusion at Tech Report is that Intel has "recaptured the desktop CPU performance title in dramatic fashion". The Core 2 Extreme and the Core 2 Duo E6700 "easily outperform" the Athlon 64 FX-62 across a range of applications.
Hexus.net says "it's difficult not to be wholly impressed with Intel's Core 2 Duo processors". -
basically the core extreme is of PRESENT, the FASTEST and MOST FURIOUS CHIP in the world!

let's leave AMD out of this comparison since its apparent that you are asking for 2 processor types from Intel.Originally posted by Totoro2006:"Pentium 4 - 3.4 Dual Core" VS "E6600 - CD2.4" , which one faster?
Why?
to correct your post, you must comparing 'pentium 4, 3.4 ghz intel extreme edition' and not 'dual core' (an AMD naming) or the 'core duo' you were trying to tell, with the 'core 2 duo'
P4, 3.4 ghz.......
the older pentiums are made to run faster at the expenses of higher power consumption and heat dissipation in a smaller architecture. i believe the extreme edition were using 2 'virtual' cores for hyperthreading.
E6600 core2 duo.....
this newer processor has a true 2 physical core on die with the clock speed reduced so that their pipeline (threads) can be shorten. this is a concept that has been adopted by the successful AMD's 64bit processor that swept the desktop processor market by storm a couple of years back. intel has realised that they are unable to manage the increase in their P4 extreme processors's speed and heat and having to reduce the silicon sizes significantly while maintaing a longer pipeline (thread). it was even much too impossible to pack 2 physical processors on a die and hope to achieve more from it. in short the core2 duo is just like you regular AMD Anthlon's A64 X2 dual-core processor without the on-die memory controller.

NO! You are wrong!Originally posted by troublemaker2005:to correct your post, you must comparing 'pentium 4, 3.4 ghz intel extreme edition' and not 'dual core' (an AMD naming) or the 'core duo' you were trying to tell, with the 'core 2 duo'
What I'm mention is Intel P4 - 3.4(945) Dual Core 4MB, and not Intel P4 - 3.4(651) 2MB.
I dun know what is "Intel extreme edition", I just base on what I saw in "Bliss" catalog :
Intel P4 - 3.4(651) 2MB
Intel P4 - 3.4(945) Dual Core 4MB
Intel CD2 6700 - 775 Dual Core 2 -
ok Totoro is the winner!!!!
Thread close till other Mods reopen -

even 8 cores processors are quite common already.

Not really common in gamers and home users yet... Even Apple's highest end machine is still quad core.Originally posted by kaobeikaobu:even 8 cores processors are quite common already.

Intel P4 - 3.4 Ghz (processor #651) with 2mb level2 cache is an Intel Pentium 4 processor
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/body_view_p4.htm
Intel P4 - 3.4 Ghz (processor #945) with 2x2MB (4MB total) level2 cache is an Intel pentium D processor with 2 coures (or rather Dual core)
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/chart/pentium_d.htm
Intel Core Duo (CD) 6700, 2.66 Ghz (processor #6700) - LGA (Land Grid Array) 775
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/chart/core2duo.htm
Comparing the specifications and if you have the money to spend on the computer go for the CD2 6700. ALthough the clock speed is slower (2.66 Ghz as compared to a 3.4 Ghz Pentium4 extreme, it is using a very 'AMD-like' architecture and to make things better it has 2 real physical cores. So other programmes (including anti-virus) runs in the background on one core while the other free core can do the gaming, videos, text, design, computing etc work you may be working on. -
i think the clear differences between both are their FSB and cache.
Enhanced Enhanced SpeedStep Technology...so many vendor so many bombastic terms...read up abit on that just nw..lower power consumption and heat production...seems that that's another diff... -
the 3 processor numbers come from different generations/ release rather. CD2 6700 being newer than the #945 and it being newer than the #651. with every improved version of the Intel processors, usually (but not always) the bus speed will increase. Anything above the 800mHz is preferred for a higher/ faster ram type as DDR2 instead of DDR.
Intel used to make processors with speedstep technology so that the processor in this make will be intelligent enough to decide and cut down on power consumption when the application drain is low and pump up power intake when the usage is high. It is a preferred concept in mobile computers (e.g notebook) for better heat management/ dissipation without comprimising computing power.
When Hyperthreading was introduced to have 2 virtual cores in one processor, the speedstep naming was 'dropped' and most processor there after were branded with the 'hyperthreading' tag. However speedstep technology is still incorporated in some/ most processors after the 'hyperthreading' ones.
Data are processed from the very fast level 1(L1) down to level(L2) before approaching the memory controller then to the memory modules (ram). the highest L2 cache i know are still from Intel's webbie and its 2MB on one physical core. When you have 2x2MB, its the usual availability of 2 physical cores with one L2 cache of 2MB each OR 2 possible virtual cores with 2 separate L2 cache ready for disposal when hyperthreading is activated.
Everything is in the intel webbie and its very informative. -

The Intel webbie and this forum helped you, not me.
