Dual core E2160 or E4400

[Kyle]

hey guys, im changing all the computers on the website to intel, and im having trouble deciding between these two processors, they are exactly the same, the only thing different is the L2 cache and clock speed, the E2160 has a 1mb L2 cache and clocked at 1.8ghz, E4400 is 2mb L2 cache clocked at 2.0 ghz

im wondering if its worth the extra money
E2160: $95
E4400: $126

i can easily oc that E2160 to 2.0ghz stable, its a very stable core, they both use the Allendale core, so they are basically the exact same processor except for cache, little help?

this is for an office pc, btw

thanks,
kyle

I'd say go for the E4400. I'm not sure what overall market your trying to capture but people see higher clock speeds and want them. Plus 2mb Cache is better than 1mb Cache.

Will you be custom over clocking systems for clients?

thanks, thats what i went with

ya thats the plan, every one of our computers mid-performance and up will come overclocked from us and our overclocking is covered by warranty, saves the client money instead of buying more expensive parts

I say, go for the E4400.
