Well, if you want the much more expensive chip to run at 4Ghz, be my guest. Whereas, the Pentium D 805 is only $130.
You see, what makes the Pentium D's suck so bad is 2 things:
1. Built on NetBurst architecture, which is $#@!.
2. The way Intel implemented dual-core on the Pentium D's means that half the time one of the cores is starved for bandwidth. They perfected dual core in the Core and Core 2's.
I'm telling you though, it's a world of difference. But, do what you wish, I'll lose no sleep over it.
