Will there be reason to build notebooks with the Conroe chip?

Currently you can get heavyweight notebooks with P4 or Athlon 64 chips for max performance.

With the lower wattage of the conroe chips, I would imagine notebooks with this chip could be built.

The question is, would there be enough reason to build a conroe based notebook instead of merom? Do you think it will happen?

I believe Conroe is the desktop name and Merom is the notebook name.

At this point in chip architechure for Intel I believe they are actually doing the opposite of the past and porting desktop chips from the notebook chips instead of the other way around.

That's interesting. Good way to keep the wattage down in the destops I suppose.


I'd be interested to see a comparison of the same speed Merom and Conroe.
