whats the champ.....AMD 64 or pentium M

[tvdang7]

ive got both and am very happy with both but my 2.0 pentium M lost in a cpu mark score to my friends 2.8 pentium 4 HT ...so lets settle this then whats better amd64 or pentium M...im not a smart dude so do they have the same architecture or what cuz they both have low clock speeds but yet have super performance..... some on vote on which is better

AMD 64, I mean come on the X2 is freaking crazy.

 

[jbrukardt]

The reason your pentium M got trashed is they really only shine when OCed to the max. Push that up to 2.5 if you can, and itll blow away everything up to an FX-55 in benchmarks and games (not encoding)

 

[tvdang7]

well its in my laptop and im sure i dont want to mess it up so ill leave it where it is.....

and im dont mean x2 of course thats just not the same level

I have to agree with the potential for greatness of an overclocked P-M. Both of mine simply fly!

 

[Retro Rex]

I think the better question is, which is better, a P-M laptop or a A64 Turion one?

 

[Dillusion]

An overclocked P-M will step all over an overclocked FX-57. But in some tests- like FPU benchmarks the P-M will lose to even a 2.4C Pentium 4.

that sounds very promissing but kinda not ya know? lol

You gotta be kidding?

well it wins in some thigns and loses in others

The FX57 will be able to outclock a PM though right???.... Has more headroom iirc

*cough* tom's..

the p-m is definitly a decent gaming and benching cpu.. but that's about it. as for the oc'ed fx-57 vs oc'ed p-m.. you've gotta be kidding me. the fx will own except for superPI

They've both been taken to 4GHz and not much further.

hi again eclipse!

sup yo?

indeed..ah, how i lust for triple stage cascade

Dont remember where I read it and dont feel like looking it up but I think its on goodle you can find out the performance of a oc'ed Pentium Mobile at 3.0 ghz and it totally blew everything away from amd and intel non Mobile procs.

I think its on goodle

eh?

Theres no pci express pentium-M mobos to take advantage of the new video cards, so I would n't really want one.

Also, my notebook has a pci-e 6600 Go, along with a Dothan, so I know firsthand of their awesomeness for gaming.

u mean desktop mobos? cuz my dell 6000 has a x300 in it and the other models have 6800 go and the 6800 ultra

AOpen also makes a mATX desktop motherboard that supports PCIe based on I believe the i915GM. But alas at $300+ I dont think too many people have it.
