Core 2 CPU Performance
I currently have an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, clock 3.000 GHz, 6M cache. I am contemplating buying an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300, clock 2.5 GHz, 6M cache. Both CPUs have a 1333 GHz bus speed. Many CPU performance sites rate the Quad as being considerably faster, despite the lower clock frequency. I would like your opinion on this. Thank you.
