I was looking at laptops and noticed the two different processors of AMD Turion and Intel....so my question is this, which processor is better???

Intel
go dual core
battery tends to suck a bit with dual core but if that is not an issue do that otherwise if batt is major issue go centrino

mdiver said:

so what is Amd? I mean i guess what i'm asking is what is the difference between the two? Does one do more than the other?

mdiver said:

Why is Intel better ?

I have an Athlon and it works fine

Dewrede said:

yeah this what i'm waiting on someone to answer for me. all of these prince orgers and no computer experts???

i guess everybody is on those "suck balls"/"guy grills girlfriend" threads....

missfee said:

It just is...its like asking why is Aston Martin better than Chevvy.....faster,cleaner,better.....

i refuse to believe that
i heard AMD is faster with less

thank you, thank you, thank you for this article!!! I'm going to read it right now!!!

Dewrede said:

i'll read this one too. Thanks again!!!

you're welcome , btw i guess he's right after all
It seems in 2007 Intel is better again
So it depends on what year
Intel is more expensive tho

(btw im in no way an expert )

yeah i was reading both articles and it seems that really both are great it just depends on if you are willing to spend the "Intel" money to get that or go affordable with "AMD". At least thats the way it looks to me.

If you're just doing general purpose computing then either one is more than enough. Spend money on the cheaper AMD model and use the money you saved on something else.
