Roughly even when you combine idle temp and temo when system is in full use, but if you check out performance bechmarks at bottom of page, Core 2 Duo smokes the Turion X2...

Core2 is more power efficient and cooler at max load, but X2 is more efficient when idle, because Cool 'N' Quiet steps the processor speed lower than SpeedStep does. Core2 is, however, much faster.

My new dell laptop has the TurionX2. The fan hardly ever runs. The speed is the best I've ever had. Make sure to get a kick-butt video card to keep your system rockin.

C J ten points AMD runs cooler then INTEL, and AMD last longer
also AMD dose run cooler when under load but INTEL is faster but you can get a equivalent AMD for a lot less.
