Core2 Duo E6420 vs i3-10100 - Marvel's Avengers RX 540 Mobile - Game Performance Benchmarks

Pentium E5700 or Core 2 Duo E6420Hey I am not that good at processors. I wanted to know which processor is better? Pentium E5700 3.0GHZ or the Core 2 Duo E6420 2.13 GHZ. The clock speed of the C2D is lesser but has double the L2 Cache and 300mhz FSB more than the E5700 therefore does this make any difference? Which one is better?

No, since they are both very similar in every other aspect. Cache contributes several percent at best. And FSB is basically irrelevant, except if you plan to overclock - in that case, lower FSB is better, as it leaves more room to play with Since your motherboard supports Core 2 Quad CPUs, I would give up from both dual cores and just get a decent quad core, second-hand. They can be found for really cheap. If you can, get Q9550 or Q9650. You can pair 750ti with any of them. Heck, I used to run R9 280X with Q9950, ran BF4 maxed flawlessly.
