AMD, I read that AMD makes the best processors. AMD ATI graphics.

Perhaps you could give us the link to what you was reading. Because I've been reading allot to and what I have read is that Intel makes the better CPU but cost more to get the better performance.

out perform. my 1st laptop had a intel slow as 7734, bought this crappy acer aspire real cheap installed win 7 on it myself and with this AMD processor its alot faster than than the compaq with intel. i cant remember how i found it but there is a website that lets you compare processors with AMD and Intel. i was wanting to upgrade my AMD to a faster 1. to me this 1.6ghz is slow and norton usually max it out with updates.

The website I know about is - http://www.cpubenchmark.net/

The performance issue depends on whether you are speaking about the top end or the bottom end of the performance scale.

Edit: Don't compare Acer to a Compaq. Compaq has always been crap in my mind.

thats my problem cant remember these websites, i be searching for upgrades on the acer aspire 5515 notebook. mine has the AMD athlon 64 single core 1.6 ghz, my anti-virus norton would max it out with updates. norton was a big problem went with webroot and browser is a lot faster no freeze ups either when it updates.

yes i believe clifford is right but since im asking about the new amd bulldozer we are not able to do an actual benchmark on the CPU itself. let me rephrase my question.

will the upcomoing bulldozer CPU be able to keep up with the intel i7?

As far as I know, this question has not yet been determined.

HP has owned Compaq for a while now. That's probably the reason they suck. After all every year when pc magazine's do reviews of how customers rate products and their support HP always seems to suck compared to every other company.
