[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 353969, member: 16911"] Ghz are not representative of speed - it's the processor design that's the main thing. Think of it in terms of cars - a 1.7 diesel is less powerful than a 1.6 petrol engine, despite it having a larger capacity. The Intel Core 2 Duo is the fastest CPU at the moment. Have a look at some benchmarks here to see it's usually near the top: [url]http://tomshardware.co.uk/cpu/charts.html?modelx=33&model1=430&model2=464&chart=187[/url] Remember that unless you're playing games, the difference between processors isn't actually that spectacular despite all the marketing hype.
