Pentium(r) dual core vs intel core 2 duo processor

[Guest]

Hello,

would you please elaborate more on the differences?

Pentium is now the cheaper brand of intel processors. They are often just last generation Core processors.

Yea and this case there is a significant difference in performance betweek the Pentium Dual core and the Core 2 Duo at the same clock speed

To quantify that, Tokencode, your taking about Pentium D dual core, not Pentium as it is now.

That is correct, I should have been more specific.
