i3 2100 vs q6600/q6700

[Elite007]

Hi all,
Just a quick question, which one of the two processors mentioned above is superior in terms of gaming?

Hello... https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core2+Quad+Q6600+%40+2.40GHz

The I3-2100 in a heartbeat.
The individual cores are much stronger.
Games depend a lot on the performance of the master thread.
Here is an older test where a I3-2120 shows what it can do compared to a number of amd quad core chips, all of which will be faster than a Q6700.
