I'm looking at getting a new proc. It appears that my Intel D945GNTLKR will NOT support Core2Duo.........:P

 

What Ive been lookin at is the Intel Pentium D 945-950 Dual Core.

 

The question I have is that it appears that the 945 proc has 4 megs of cache (2x2) and the 950 has a straight 4 meg. What, if any (noticeable) difference would there be in performance.

 

Or any other input would be much appreciated.

 

 

Thanks

all Pentium D's have 2 x 2mg of L2 cache....

looking at the Intel site the only difference between the 2 processors are that the 945 doesn't have Intel VT and the 950 does + the 950 is generally a slight bit more pricey

 

i would go with the 945 the performance difference would be nothing unless you need to use the virtualization extensions that the 950 offers
