More Pentium Dual Core Results At Bottom Of The Page
How well will an Intel®Pentium® dual-core processor work with 2 gb of memory? should I go higher to Core 2?
how much of a difference in speed is there between Intel®Pentium® dual-core processor and Core 2 duo?
Also, would it be possible to play the sims 2 or Flight simulator X with only 1 gb? how well would they run?
I would go with the Core 2 Duo processor with at least the same processor speed as the Pentium Dual Core you are considering.
You have to tell me the operating speed/ model number of each processor if you want an accurate answer as to the relative performance.
These two have identical performance scores.

Yes 2GB of memory is good with Vista. Some gamers use 4GB. I recommend 800+MHz Dual Channel RAM if your system supports it.

My opinion for a new computer processor to run Vista:
A Rendering Time of 1:59 or less
For gaming a Rendering Time of 1:33 or less (1:20 or less preferred)

My opinion for a new video card:
For playing the latest games a FRAPS (frames per second) of 50 or higher (optimum 80 or higher)
For moderate games a FRAPS of 30 or more.
For 2D (simple) games or no games a FRAPS of 18 or more
