Title: Requesting a good 2x core build for desktop and laptop.. Few questions included.
Post by: lukmander on March 19, 2009, 08:14:21 PM

Which is better, Intel or AMD? in terms of speed, overclocking, and reliability....
Core 2 Duo vs Athlon x2 , Centrino2 vs Turion x2...

They say lesser disk space is much better for peformance.. Ex a 320gb desktop works faster than a 1TB destop with the same specs. Is it true?

Can i have a good customized build for a laptop with 2x core and >2gb Ram and 512 graphics (i heard kingstion sux)... money aint a factor....

First in terms of durability and performance, Intel is better. And a lesser disk space would mean only you will be able to store less. But having 1 TB would mean that defragmentation will take a lot longer. but performance should not be noticebly different.

Customized builds, especially for laptops will be very expensive. But if you want performance, i would suggest Alienware, especially when money is not a factor. or a Dell XPS 1530 or 1730, if you are gaming.
