Hey guys,

how good are the laptop processors AMD TurionTM 64 X2 series?

are they fast?

i cant say a specific model of turion but i just wanted to know in general if theyre good in laptops.

thanks
 
I'm running a single-core Turion 64 and it runs great at 2.2Ghz, even in Vista. I can't comment on the dual-cores though.
 
hi thanks for the reply,I should think if the single core ones are good then two of them muct e even better :D
 
Good point on the Vista Experience rating. My MK-38 rates at a 4.2 according to Vista, while the TK-53 rates 4.9 on a scale that (I believe) goes up to 5.2. I think pretty well any new Turion laptop now comes with the dual-core model so you can't go wrong.
 
The scale goes up to 5.9, its a good processor, you may need a beefier one for gaming however.
