T2080 cpu compared to an AMD 3300+
Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2007 11:19 am
Now I know the T2080 is dual core and the amd is not, but has anyone used anythign similiar? Wife is looking for a low end laptop for work and CC has the t2080 for a decent price right now, so I might tell her to buy that and switch with my 3300+ 
IF it is worth it. I am thinking in terms of folding power with the SMP client also ;)
I never messed with laptop cpus much, so I really dont have a clue if the T2080 is worth the money, or to go wit ha single core AMD. I do know the T2080 halves the onboard cache to 1MB compared to c2d chips and it only runs at, I think, 533mhz.
