does that mean i could buy a socket 478 pentium M and put into my computer and expect pretty good performance out of it or will that not work at all?
Thats not nececarily true. if ther WAS no such thing as a centrino processor then why would they have comercials of it and be using it like a pentium4? I was also told that the centrino processors are supposed to out-date the p4's and intel will use them instead. IDK if this is true but ive only heard about it.There's really no such thing as a Intel Centrino Processor. Intel Centrino is a combination of technology that optimizes mobile productivity.
The reason is very similar to the reason that AMD's run at lower clock frequencies than (most) Intels, yet have higher performance than clock speed would seem to dictate -- A difference in architecture.
well acording to thisdoes that mean i could buy a socket 478 pentium M and put into my computer and expect pretty good performance out of it or will that not work at all?
you should be able to put it in there and not only out perform but be cooler! If thats true of course. then again look at amd's cpu line and obviously a slower clock speed is working. Sorry if it takes me awhile to respond to any comments about my post i have to type at school cause my phone was shut off and i have dial up.The 1.8GHz CPU that you are refering to is the Pentium M. It was designed from scratch to provide better performance with less power consumption. The clock frequency of a Pentium M cannot be direcly compared to that of any other processors. For example, a Pentium M 1.6GHz, like I have in my laptop, is said to have comparable performance to a Pentium 4 3.06GHz. The 1.8 is compared to the 3.2 or 3.4 (I can't remember exactly).

SO your saying intel jacked amd's cpu architecture or what? If not then please PM me and explain what your talking baout besides the l2 cache. Do they use the quantum speed architecture or is it basically a new chip or what?
