Question:
64 Bit Processors vs Pentium 5 vs Duo-Core Processor
Ok well before I finally buy sony vaio sz series. I want to know whats like the future. I dont want to change this laptop for around 2 years probably.
Isnt 64 bit processors supposed to be better considering all the 64bit speed and stuff. Pentium 5 is going to **** well powerful and duo-core processors for multi-tasking.
So like should I just buy the Intel Duo-Core processor ? or buy a laptop with a 64 bit processor like the amd 64's.

ohk. well 64 bit or intel duo core which is 32 bit right?
Answer:
Re: 64 Bit Processors vs Pentium 5 vs Duo-Core Processor
That's correct, AMD's Turion is 64-bit and the Pentium-M is 32 bit, later this year Intel is going to release the Merom the Turion's evil twin ;) (As in dual-core 64-bit, 1 good side, 1 bad)

So should I wait and not get my intel duo core processor or just try to find a laptop with amd64?
Answer:
Re: 64 Bit Processors vs Pentium 5 vs Duo-Core Processor
Wait if you don't need it urgently. If you need a laptop for like 5 minutes ago, buy one.

If you look at the front page of this website there is a nice article about current processors and processors to come. It explains what you should get or if you should wait.
