just need to ask, what's the diff between turionx2 and coreduo, in terms of performance and the heat generated?

or is it just the same thing?
*
AMD Turion 64 X2 is intended to be positioned against the Intel Core Duo was presented in 17. May 2006. However, the performance was 20% below the T2300 (1.66 GHz) due to the lower L2 Cache (Core Duo has 2048 Kbyte shared L2 Cache). Nevertheless, the performance is sufficient.

..turion64 supports 64bit vista while duocore doesnot support ... duocore are cooler wherelse turion64x2 are same heat as Core 2duo. Up to you which you prefer ..Turion64 also uses 800Mhz hypertransport since it supports 64bits while duocore onli support to 667mhz ..

so overall ..if u r not concerned with the 64bit thing...then duo core is a good choice ... but usually Turion chipset's integrated graphics are better than intels ...
