50 bits.....
all Intel CPU's are better than amd (end of) get anything in the core 2 duo range or quad core if you have enough cash skt 775 with fsb of 800-1333 with a speed of 2.0ghz upwards or you could try xeon or itanium CPU's but they are real expensive
The first dual core CPU for the high-end / server market was the Intel "Itanium 2 (Montecito series)" processor. It was released in 2006. Besides that also the "Intel Pentium D" and the "Intel Pentium Extreme Edition" offered two cores. Both have been released in 2005.

Intel has actually manufactured several incompatible architectures. The 4004, 8008, and 8080 are all incompatible. The 8086, 8088, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium (II, III, 4), and Core (2) are all backwards-compatible processors classified as "x86." Intel also created the i860 and IA-64 (Itanium) architectures.
Pentium Duo Quad, Pentium core duo, Pentium D, Xeon, Itanium, Pentium M, Pentium 4, Celeron, Pentium 3, Pentium 2, Pentium Pro, 486, 386, 286.
IBM - POWER series, PowerPC series, CBE series, Broadway core (Nintendo Wii), Xenon (Xbox 360) Intel - Pentium series, including Pentium M and Pentium D; Celeron value series; Core and Core 2 series; Xeon server processors; Itanium and Itanium 2; XScale low-power processors AMD - Various series of Athlons; Opteron series; Geode low-power processors

The best CPU right now is the Intel Core i7
´Dual core' just means that there are 2 separate cores in the CPU. Intel has made dual core pentuim 4, core duo and core 2 duo CPUs. ´Core 2 Duo´ is just one type of dual core CPU that Intel has made.
Pentium D was 1st Intel desktop CPU to put 2 CPU's in same package called dual core. It uses a 775 pin motherboard socket, now a standard for many Intel processors.
