Another angle: Those were some of the first dual-core x86 processors, released 2006 and 2005 respectively. (Intel had the Pentium D as its first in 2005).
I don't remember which I had for sure. I'm leaning more towards Core 2 Duo. It was my first PC, I was 12 and built it with my father.
I also got my first computer around then. I saved up for ages and bought the first gen Intel MacBook with an Intel Core Duo (2 cores, no hyperthreading). I still have that laptop somewhere... It blew my mind it could run Windows, and Windows laptops couldn't compare at the time.
