I don't have an Intel Core Duo but I do have an Intel Dual-Core 930 3.0mhz. At 170,000 won it delivers the goods. Sure, I'll get a fast Core Duo eventually, but only after prices come way down.

I agree with those who maintain that you only need really fast, cutting edge, processors if you are doing a lot of video editing.

FEAR isn't multi-threaded. It has got more to do with your graphics card than any dual-core situation.
