1. AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology
2. AMD Turion™ 64 Mobile Technology
3. Mobile AMD Athlon™ 64
4. AMD Athlon™ 64 for DTR
5. Mobile AMD Sempron™
Which is the best and why? Can you give me the exact speed of each processor or the processor you know.
Can I change an intel cpu and motherboard to one with an AMD processor?
elmocrc9 asked:
Ok,
I have an HP pavilion 754n, with a P4 2.5ghz and only supports 1GB of ram.
I allready have a new case which will allow me to switch into a better motherboard.
I dont necesarrily want a duo core or X2 processor at the moment but I would want to upgrade it soon, my questions are.
Can I change my motherboard and CPU into an AMD eventhough I have a P4. Do all motherboards support both kinds of CPUs?? I know the socket is what matters but does it have to be a specific type of motherboard if its AMD or Intel? Also my hard drive has Windows XP Home Edition allready installed in it and it didnt come with the CD, I really do not want to have to buy Windows XP again, will changing the motherboard ruin my stuff?? I dont mind backing up my files I just want to keep windows XP.
Thanks!
I think I can get order the XP CD from HP.com with only a shipping charge, so will that do the trick??? If not will the CD key on the sticker on the side of the PC useful to reactivate my Windows ???

what is the difference between an AMD processor and a Intel processor?
willidal asked:
With the introduction of the 64 bit AMD processors, is there anything that Intel came out with that is 64 bit, and if I am looking at buying a computer, which is better for the money: an AMD 64 bit processor, or a Intel (I am looking at purchasing this computer, so that I won’t have to upgrade for vista…) Also if the 64 bit is better, then where can I find the windows XP 64 bit OS, and does it make that big of a difference???
