i am in the market for a new computer. i have a pentium 4 and i have always believed in pentium. there are so many new chips out there dual core, amd anthlon, etc.
Whats your budget? If you just want to buy a cpu, you need to know what your mobo can support. What socket is it?
The best cpu out there is the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6850, which costs about $1000 USD. There are other good ones, like the duel cores, which go for around $200

i was looking at a dell intel pentium dual core processor
i was always told to stay away from centrino and stick with pentium
hmm, pentium duel cores are ok, but core 2 duos are better and newer. If that dell pc you suggested has vista on it, I strongly recommend you get one with another gig of ram. 2 gigs will make it run A LOT faster.
Btw, out of the pentium duel cores, the Athlon 64x2 and the core 2 duos, the core 2 duos are the best. Oh, and a mobo is just short for a motherboard.

I bought the same Dell those pentium dual core processor's (e2140,e2160 and e2180)are based on core 2 architecture but with only 1 MB of cache and the Inspiron 530 can be upgraded to the E6850 core2duo which is what i did with my Vostro 200.
