Any of you guys know the equivalent core 2 duo cpu of a pentium dual core e5500 2.8ghz cpu?
METKRAM
~3.1Ghz phenom II/Athon II Dualcores, Athlon x3 ~2.8Ghz. ~2.4Ghz i3 without hyperthreading. other core 2 as the E4700, E8300... ... A phenom (the oldest one) x4 ~2Ghz. Why are you asking, does the question really involve how much better your CPU became when you OC'ed it?
I just wanted to compare them at the can u run it site, if i can run a particular game, cause most of the game's minimum requirements that come out today are on a core 2 duo cpu. and thanks for the info at least i'll have an idea of comparison.
Pentium dual core actually has superior clock for clock speed than the 65nm core 2 duo CPU's. They just have less cache which means they are not better than those core 2's but neither are they inferior.
I must say though intel couldnt have got it worse with the name of the product, the pentium D also stands for dual core but the difference between pentium dual core and pentium D is beyond generations.
Rig: cpu pentium dual core e5500 2.8ghz 2gb ram ati radeon hd 4650 Hoping this can run operation raccoon city even at minimum and dead island too. It can run dead space 2 at max with no problem.

It can run dead space 2 at max with no problem. In that PC the CPU isn't the biggest problem anyway, the HD4650 is not that fast of a card. I have no qlue about what those games are but you should play most more demanding games fine on a low - medium settings, "raccoon city" sounds like it could run on a fast mobilephone. :P
