is the AMD athlon 64 x2 dual core processor 6000 a realy good processor? what intel processor is it comparable

Question

to. I no nothing about AMD processors

Answer 1

An AMD X2 6000 is a 2x3.0ghz processor, with a 2mb cache.

A comparable Intel is either :

A intel E6600
A intel E6750
A intel E6850.

The intels have a better size cache, but the AMD's conpensate by being cheaper.

If you going for a top range proccessor, which 6000 is, then i'd probly go for intel myself.

And this is an AMD lover speaking, but i think that intel have really won the market on high end processors at the moment.

For mid-range, I rate AMD alot more though.

Answer 2

The AMD is comparable to the E6600, as they have about the same performance. However the E6750 and E6850 are easily faster. For they money though, the 6000+ is a very good processor.
