Core 2 Duo vs Dual Core

I have to buy a new desktop. I have narrowed down 2 processors, can anyone tell me which one is better:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 2 MB L2 1.86 GHz 1066 MHz

Or

Intel Dual Core 2 MB L2 3 GHz 800 MHz

Both of them costs same.

C2D has higher FSB and has the latest and better architecture, while Dual Core has higher clock speed.

I have heard C2Ds overclock really well.

Please suggest, I am really confused.

PS. Don't suggest E6400 or E6600 or E6700 or X6800, they are out of my budget.

 

C2D is better

 

core 2 duo is better, it has new tecnology and the FSB makes all the diference. the MHZ today dont really mean more performance (for different processor types)

 

Intel Core 2 Duo uses new and more advanced technology. This is a new a whole new ballgame.

 

Update:

I got the E6300 C2D processor.

Its an awesome processor.

 

Sumit i dont know about all these configurations, send me one as a gift and i will let you know more lol

 

That's the way to go. Waiting for the pics

Pics talks better than words whatever that means

 

Sumit bhai, send the machines here for testing, il will check them properly and send you my valuable feedback.. (don't expect the machines back though )

 

lol, sure. I will send you one tomorrow.

 

didnt get u there what can pics do when u dont know the configuration in words lol

 

Congrats dude.. I had talked to one of my friends, after your called and he also told me that C2D is an awsome processor..

 

Thanx a lot.

 

Someone said "Looks does matter"

Besides, we saw the pics for his earlier machine as well. So we expect to see pics for this desktop as well

 

ya ya i know that , u asked for the pics in almost every post here http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=136349 oops that was post padding lol
No worries just ask for more pics lol

Sure tims, but the MacBook is so sweet! Especially if I can get supped up a bit, more RAM
