Right.

Need your helo guys and girls.

I had decided on building a complete new system up until today, and I am having second thoughts.

So I'll ask my first question! :)

AMD® Turion™ 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL52/TL50.

Is the TL52 better than the TL50 and why?

256MB ATI ® Radeon® Xpress 1150 HyperMemory™ or Intel® Media Accelerator 950.

Again, which one is better? I assume the ATI 11550 would be.

Note, the above questions are in relation to a laptop I am considering getting.

Next thing I need help with is if someone would mind 'speccing' me a complete system, including monitor, but excluding keyboard and mouse. Budget £470 inc delivery.

I really really appreciate any help with this one!
 
I said this to you over the phone, afaik the TL52 has more cache, but further that idk... I'm not a laptop geek soo... *shrugs*

Thanks for the spec ! :)

What about an AMD X2 spec with an ATI card? If you don't mind :D

TL52 is better as its quicker, and the Xpress 1150 is better than the intel GMA. Both pretty useless for decent gaming

Thanks. Wouldn't be using the Laptop for gaming though if I do go down that route.

What do people think of this setup? What would its like compared to Meatloafs suggested setup? What would you change, if anything? Bare in mind I can't really pay more than I have done already.....
