I need to know which is better; Pentium D or Core 2 Duo? I'm building a computer which will have (roughly):
1 8800 GTX nVidia video card
4 GB RAM
1 500GB hard drive
That's pretty much the only thing I can think of that's really affected by the CPU. The CPU I'm looking at is Pentium D 3.4GHz, and the Core 2 Duo is 2.66GHz. The FSB on the Core 2 Duo is 1066 or something, and the Pentium D is 800, I'm pretty sure that makes a difference.
I really want this system for playing Oblivion, 3D Modeling, and, well, pretty much every next-gen game that comes out. PS: I'm completely aware that they both have dual cores, so please don't tell me the Pentium D has one. Thanks!
