Subject says it all. I'm considering building a system with one of these cpus. For those of you who have these cpus already, what have your experiences been with them?

well each core is 1 or 2 ghz with 2mb cache on each core making it BETTER than a Pentium 4 3.8ghz with 2mb cache by about double
BUT not all programs (e.g games) even use the second core meaning for some tasks youll basically have a PC half the speed of a regular P4

If you're thinking about OCing them, you'll have to be very careful when choosing mobo. Some won't let you change things much. Friend of mine got dual core and his mobo (can't remember the name) gave him 2 choices for the multiplier setting. Pathetic.
