Core 2 Duo E6850 with 25% higher clock speed performs better in a lot of applications, including games. Moreover, it is also more economical. As a result, the most optimal choice for a system working at nominal speeds would depends a lot on the type of tasks it is intended for.

in other words, the faster clock speed makes it faster at standard speed... Fairly obvious.
More economical... It's cheaper.
Dual core is the current optimal choice for games, since games are not quad optimised.
Set up a task intensive app, that wacks the processor and you'll see the difference. The quad will wipe the floor with the dual core.
