Go up one level in this thread


I may bit missing something, but isn't a Centrino just a regular x86 CPU aimed
for low-power consumption and something for wireless? If anything I'd think it
would be slower.

Guess I don't see how it could be faster, especially against a Xeon or even an
Athlon. What is the size for the caches (L1 and L2), what ghz range is it?

Not trying to sound condescending, I really dont understand it.

Sincerely,
Joshua Shriver
