Dual-cores at silly prices now. Wondering as the prices are almost the same, which of these would be better to run WinUAE on.

4400 X2 2.2GHz 2MB L2
4600 X2 2.4GHz 1MB L2

I strongly suspect only one of the cores would be used (I can find a use for the other one).

Would the JIT emulation perform better on big cache Athlons or would the extra MHz be better?

(Also be using it to run DX9 and DX10 games soon e.g. Crysis.)


I wonder if one core would be running the OS (XP) and the other running WinUAE?
