Hello, how does the Intel core 2 duo E6750 stack up against the Pentium 4 3.6GHz?
I have a Pentium 4 HT 3.6 GHz with 512 KB L2 cache and 400 MHz FSB on Intel LGA 775 Socket.
The refurbished Intel core 2 Duo is being offered at an amazing deal at Rs. 650:

Also, is it compatible with my board: MSI 915 gvm-v and RAM: Transcend 1GB 400MHZ DDR x2?
Will it be speedier in operation. I use the computer for web browsing, typing, excel sheets, etc. No graphic intensive work.

Yeah, that board has a 915G chipset, so it's pretty much Pentium 4 or nothing. That board is so old it actually has an AGP slot, I didn't know those even existed for LGA775. In any case, you're pretty much stuck with your Pentium 4 unless you want to get a new motherboard, and new RAM as well.

the Core 2 Duo is more efficient and does things better, or can do them just as well at a lower clock speed, but for your type of use it's probably totally irrelevant. it would use less power, though, so your electricity would be cheaper by a tiny little bit, but i wouldn't really go and buy one in your situation. if you get one for free, then sure swap them.
