Core 2 Duo Mobile T7700 4MB Cache vs E6600

[Sniper123]

Both these cpu have both the same core speed and cache size.
Just wondered how this chip compared to a desktop C2D range as the laptop I'm thinking about getting has this mobile chip.

Also, How CPU limited would SLI 8800m GTX be with a T7700?

In the real world, the e6600 would be paired up with a newer chipset and faster ram, making it faster. It also has the 1066 fsb against the 800 on the t7700.

m1730/m17x?

Running at 1920x1200 with the details shoved on max, the system should perform quite well. However, If you're going to spend that much money on a laptop might as well pair it up with a penryn cpu or even the EE.

M1730

They want a whopping 470 for a x9000 2.8Ghz or w/e its called which is over a pound a mhz lol.

Guess I'll haggle and see what happens

umm...actually, it's a pound per 5.95Mhz...but who's counting

I ment from a T7700(2.4Ghz) to a x7900(2.8Ghz) <--- cost 475 more

You can order them from stores for around £400

Saves you £70 and whatever you gain from selling the t7700.

Good luck with the m1730, mine was so bad I returned it.

Of topic...

What didn't you like about the m1730?

Meh....I'm a sucker for pretty flashing lights, The Dell m1730 is to sexy compared to the Clevo 901c which I'm guessing is the chassis Rock will be using
