Amd X2 proccesors?

Question

Whats the difference between the toledo and the brisbane? The brisbane is the best one, right? Do you think its worth the money (how much are they anyways?)

Answer 1

The Toledo is in 2 different amd processers.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Toledo 2.0GHz Socket 939
and the
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Toledo 2.2GHz Socket 939

This is older then the brisbane, but you will not notice much of a difference depending on the processer, for example, the x2 4200 is faster then the 3800.

For prices, the AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 cost about 65 dollars, and the 4200 cost about 80 dollars.

They are both better processers then the singl core ones which are around.

The brisbane is a little better then the toledo, and new. Ya know, new is better. If you are interested, you should simple get the brisbane
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Brisbane 1.9GHz Socket AM2 Processor Model ADO3600DDBOX - Retail for about 62 dollars. New socket, its faster.
it cost around 61 dollars so its a great bang for the buck.

Check out these brisbanes, the higher the number the new and better.

Definitely worth the money and upgrade

Answer 2

Brisbanes are the better of the two, and are much newer. The Toledos use the old socket 939, while the Brisbanes use the newer socket AM2, so the two types are not interchangeable.
