So how does the X4200 compate with the Core2 Duo E6400 2.13Ghz. This is mainly for gaming. I can't find to many comparisions between thses two However in their big brother tests the intel seems to out perform the AMD.
Their is only a $70 AUD Difference between the AMD and the Intel. But would I see a performance increase between the AMD and the Intel?
