AMD E-350 vs Pentium 4

[AMDisAwesome]

I game alot but, I've got me a game which says minimum Pentium 4 processor I've got a E-350 which runs other games quite fine but would it work for me??? Also, It if was dual core optimized that would help but atm I think its not

The E-350 should work, but don't expect performance much beyond that of a 2.2 - 2.5 GHz Pentium 4. It's a pretty light weight processor which has even lighter weight graphics capabilities. I would recommend downloading a demo of the game, if available, before you commit to a purchase, if you're concerned with performance.

It DOES say Pentium IV 2.6ghz but there is no demo because it is still in Alpha but would it be playable lag??? I have some experience with BIOS tweaking and about the Dual core support... How much more would It help me? thx

Dual-core or not, you're going to have marginal performance. The E-350 is akin to a souped up net book processor. While it works very well for what it does, it is only suitable for very light gaming. I think however, if you are willing to turn down graphics details and run at a conservative resolution, you may be able to get enough frames per second to at least get something playable going on. The other thing to realize is, Alpha games generally are very poor performers, and should not be taken as representative of the performance you'll see in a shipping title.
