Hi People
Planning a new computer build and have narrowed the choice down to an X2 3800 or a Pentium D920.
Computer will not be used for gaming, so won't be bothering with overclocking. Main use of the computer will be for work particularly very large spreadsheets and potentially quite large databases (circa. 100 million records).
Is there any conspicuous advantage of one processor over the other given the expected use of the computer? I currently doubt that there is, and that either would function perfectly well.
Thank you for your time!
