I am from Australia and the prices quoted are Australia. But still, why is this 2.67Ghz dual core so much more expensive than this 2.8Ghz dual core?
Cool, a fellow Aussie.
In a nutshell, C2D E6700 is much more efficient than the P4 915 clock for clock. You cannot compare processors on clockspeed alone. C2D does about twice the amount of work per clock as a P4.
So the E6700 should be about twice as fast as the P4.
