@ iXBTLabs"Two processor cores are the reasonable minimum for most desktops today. Most processors we are going to review today fall into the magical price range of "up to $200" and can be used in a $500 PC performing much better than a relatively inexpensive notebook (or a four-year-old top PC). So, this choice is justified, when you have a strictly limited budget or just don't want to spend too much money."
