Default How much L2 Cache?

How much does a 1mb L2 cache out perform the 512k L2 cache? Just wondering if the extra cash for a processor is worth it.

Default Re: How much L2 Cache?

depends on the type of user you are, and the program you're running. Overall, double the cache is very good on performance, but for most normal day users, the difference won't be worth the extra cash.
