    If you want the fastest processor in this class, go with Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E8600. Don't know about the price though.

    Core i5 is better in nearly price. I think core 2 dual is not ok for it pricing.

    I would rather choose core 2 duo e7500 its bang for the buck. Got mine for almost 5 months now, overclocked to 3.3ghz under stock fan @ 55° idle. Its awesome!
