Is the processor Dual Core T440 2.1 GHz good enough compared to i3 330m?
I alredy tried Mafia II and Dirt2 on a laptop (i3 330m + intel hd graphics chipset) and those games did not run....
So i am having this confusion. Plus how is the normal performance of the t4400 processor for full hd (1920x1080) movie playback and regular work??
i have a laptop with amd turion64x2 laptop + nvidia geforce 7000m/610m chipset (3 years old model). it cant play full hd movie smoothly and shuts down after maximum of 5 minutes playback.
Compared to the i3, the the other CPU you mentioned (T4400 I think) doesn't compare, as the i3 is definitely superior. I think that you were having issues with the one you tried due to the Intel graphics chip that was in it. Intel graphics chips are junk compared to basically any dedicated gpu out there.
Asus K40IJ-T4400
Intel Pentium Dual Core T4400 2.1 GHz,
2 GB DDR3,
and NVIDIA Geforce 310M
or
Asus K42F
Intel i3 330M
2 GB DDR3
Intel HD Graphics
which 1 should i buy??
and my other question, will da T4400 be able 2 run full hd 1080p movies??
Are you open to other suggestions? and if so, do you have a budget? You mentioned in your first post that you wanted to play games. The honest answer is that neither of those systems will do gaming overly well. But as it stands, the GeForce 310M is going to be better than the Intel HD.
