The AMD duh... this is the original Core not the Core 2. Which happens to be around that price btw so yeah the Core 2 would pwn the AMD if it is available to you.

Yea, option C, E6300 - $219 or so retail.

I'd only go T2300 if it were for an HTPC where silent, low power operation is key. With the AOpeon i975 board it was a good option for a nice overclocking CPU with solid performance, but Conroe has nixed that attraction.
