Faster core speed with 2 cores or lower speed with 4 cores?
Go to solution
Solved by an actual squirrel,
I actually have an old e4300 overclocked to 2.8ghz, and it plays 1080p 60 fps youtube videos fine with cpu to spare. The decoding is multithreaded, so it should play better with a quad core. And phenom has some performance per clock improvements over athlon, so I'm not even sure you would be losing much single threaded performance. Go with the phenom.
