Backward compatibility is a myth. If you buy CPU strong enough it will keep up for at least 3 years (vide C2D, SB). Buying ty CPU and hoping for massive boost after upgrade to newer model over the same platform is a joke.

Wake up !

Are you just trolling or what ?

Core 2 duo was on the same socket that had, Prescott,Cedar Mill Smithfield and Presler Pentium D. Before Core 2 duo was even made.
