The fastest P4 is much higher than 3.06GHz.  They had a 3.8GHz one I think (really expensive extreme edition).

I know clocks may not make a difference but its a reasonable assumption I think xP

If I remember correctly, Core2 is like twice or more as powerful per clock as P4...

And his core2 is an E8400, 3GHz.

Only mentioned 3.06GHz cause I had one xD

Pentium 4s had Hyperthreading ~ it was taken out up until "Intel released the Nehalem (Core i7) in November 2008 in which hyper-threading makes a return. Nehalem contains 4 cores and effectively scales 8 threads." >> perhaps Torchlight was made to take advantage of it.. and the lack of it hurts performance?

Anyway.. you probably have already but I thought it might be worth mentioning.. tried patching it?
