Difference between Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core and Core 2 Duo

Difference between Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core and Core 2 Duo

Athlon 64 X2 is AMD's dual core processor just like Intel's Core 2 Duo. Two Athlon 64 placed together make Athlon 64 X2.

AMD had caught up with Pentium 4 processors, but after Intel released Core 2 Duo's there is no competition. The only advantage right now is the price.

If you don't play games and are on a tight budget go for Athlon or else Core 2 Duo.

    Very misleading. The title makes it sound like it will be an itemized comparison/contrast, but turned out to be nothing of the sort. It seems a lot like a trick. It has a couple of lines, so that it could look legitimate, but may actually be just to find out how many people will click. This suspicion even brings doubt to the reliability of the information.

    This is 100% Certified NON-FACTUAL BULLPOOP. Who ARE you anyway---an Intel employee--CEO Paul Otellini's yes-man, or an assistant bathroom attendant perhaps? So what that Intel got their Core Duo & Core 2 to the marketplace somewhat sooner, someone was bound to get their product out 1st. Yet make no mistake: AMD produces extremely competitive products! BTW if you're into reading, read up on the decades of desperately unethical measures Intel has resorted to to destroy AMD--and to end rightful competition in the free marketplace (which hurts us all). But then, maybe you're not into reading or fact-finding (just an educated guess based on your post). Yes, I agree w/ the others here---this was a waste of a good click, even feels like a manipulation.

    The athlon 64 x2 is good for gaming. Get the right dualcore drivers for Xp or gaming and it's perfect.

    Little to no information. "Difference between Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core and Core 2 Duo" is this boiled down to "but after Intel released Core 2 Duo's there is no competition". This link was a wasted click.
