I have switched my Core Duo 1,6 for C2D 2,2 about 2 Months ago. I didn't do any extensive testing (heck - i'm on standard vista drivers now) - real life stuff - and upped RAM from 1 GB to 4 GB (i know, i know - i'm on x32 so its only 3,5) but the end point is - NO significant performance boost.
By C2D cost a bit more than $15... Grrrrrr.... And I was sure it fits in my motherboard...
