I'm looking at a laptop, and have narrowed it down to two very similar ones.
One is based on a Turion X2 TL-60, 2.0GHz per core, with a Mobility Radeon x1150 chipset (from what I understand, an x300 with a 4 pipeline layout, 400MHz clock, and using system RAM).
The other is based on a Core Duo T2300, 1.66GHz per core, with a Geforce GO 7300 gpu, (from what I understand, also 4 pipes, clocked in this case at 375MHz, also using system RAM. But @90nm rather than 130nm I'm confident I can get it to hit the same clock as the AMD system - I'm not choosing on Gfx here.)
I get the Core 2's are fast, I have one in my desktop. Clock for clock Core 2 is supposed to be ~15% faster than Core, and the T2300 here is clocked alot slower.....
Both laptops are around the same price (the Intel one is slightly cheaper but has half the RAM, its the same price after I have upgraded that), Which sounds the better bet?
