first, i hope this is the right thread cause i dont want any nubs saying its not and it just happens to be allright.

ok, i have two laptops that im deciding on. remember my main focus is for using AutoCADD (Computer Aided Design and Drafting), but i wouldnt mind playing games on the side
i wanna keep it in the 700 - 850 range so if you guys could help that would be uber. yea i said uber, so shut up.

i just need to know what processor is better to use for what im going to use it for. each laptop will have 1gb of ram (although its a bit more expensive, i wouldnt mind spending an extra $50 for the 2gb special on the Core2 one)
1.Core2 Duo processor T5250 (1.5 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB)
2.Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-60 (2.0 GHz, 512KB+512KB L2 Cache )


thnx in advance if you guys care:thumbup:
which one (for what im using it for)?

Core2Duo is always a better choice, depending on your limit you may want to consider putting a lot into that. It's just more powerful, (Last longer for your money)

kk, but its only 1.5 each core??!! the amd is 2.0 each core, i know they have different architechtures but still, why istn the amd good?

im not disagreeing with you, i was jw

[splodger15]

Amd are to far behind Intel at this moment in time

just wondering, why do you need AutoCADD

[gamerremag]

im taking a 3d design course..... thats what im using now, and i hope that it, eventually, puts food on the table.

A Core2 Duo processor T5250 (1.5 GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 667MHz FSB) is better lol

The one that has a decent graphics card. If neither of those have it then found one that does. Doing any 3D work will tax the GPU as much as the CPU.

get at least 2mb of ram

[Napalm-Death]

2 milli bytes? WTF!
