Question

im using a inter celron 2.5 proceesor ,, and wasgoing to buy a pc with this processor its a Sempron 64 3400+ processor is this a one good as i dont no much about amd processors.just want to know if which one is better senable answers only please as im on limeted funds

Answer 1

AMD is better at using single programs powerfully, but if you have like 5 multi media centers an AMD can be quite slow. So for a mass of multiple programs buy an intel pentium.

Answer 2

Get a dual core,next generation os will be 64 bit so take advantage of this. If you see one computer with a certain(in this case amd 64 blah blah)setup,then that doesn't say anything,you can have two exactly the same computers next to each other,one's fast and the other slow. Depends so much how much crap has been installed and or removed!!!! Nobody seems to know,they all get to the point to reinstall while in fact there are good programs which cleans out the crap from your registry and even defrag it and it can make a huge difference. But if you need an answer on your question I would chose AMD. Oh and Heinz,processors don't get made crippled,they are all the same but then they test them and its the temperature at a certain frequency which makes them better chips or less. On good processors 100% of the transistors work(doesn't exist I guess)but the more transistors fail the more hot the processor gets,thus its sold for less and at a lower clockspeed.

Answer 3

AMD iis cheaper and is a decent processor, but I rely on Intel. Personally, I would spend a little more money and get a quality product - I would get an Intel Pentium 4. But, the processor is but one part of the picture. You've got the entire system to think about. If I were to ever buy another IBM compatible computer again, I'd get a Dell laptop. Great Customer Service & Tech Support. For less than $900.00 you can get a decent PC or Laptop!
