P4 vs C2D, which is the best for gaming?

I AM REALLY CONFUSED ABOUT THE DIFFRENCE ABOUT P4 & C 2 D PROCESSORS.

Can one explain what is the diffrence between P4 and Core 2 Duo processors(like some where I read that- 2.13GHz E6400's performance is better than P4 3.4GHz)? How is that possible?
Which type of processor do you prefer:- C 2 D xxxxx or P4 xxx for a High & Mid Range gaming computers & why?

A

the c2d processors are light years ahead of the p4s...there is no comparison there...

No dout C2D...............

Obviously C2D

Core2Duo is the latest line of processors from Intel.

They will beat P4 or Pentium D no matter what the purpose of the PC.

2.13GHz will be more powerful than P4 because it has two cores each running at 2.13GHz so it will be more powerful than P4 running at 3.4GHz

for gaming select C2D extreme....

Core2Duo is great for everything

For the reasons you will have to search around a bit. There were a couple of threads around in this section(am too lazy to search for those today), they did explain in quite simpler terms as to why even a C2D processor with lower clockspeed can anyday beat a P4 with way higher clockspeed.

^^Yep. There should be a sort of Javascript alert which pops up when one signs in stating "C2D is better than Pentium 4"...
