PROCESSOR FOR LAPTOP

For those of you who are new to computing, here are some tips on how to identify the fastest computer processor. The single most important factor when reviewing computer processors is the 'Clocking Frequency'. More the frequency, higher is the speed of performance and more are the tasks that the chip can accomplish in a single clocking cycle. The second most important factor is the cache size of the processor, which determines how much data can be temporarily stored by the processor. A cache size greater than 3 or 4 MB makes a fast processor. Thirdly, check out the number of cores. More the cores that are working simultaneously, greater is the multitasking potential of the processor. Besides these factors, a high FSB frequency and low power consumption, make for a good laptop processor. Let us take a look at some of the best computer processors for laptop computers, launched by AMD and Intel.
Fastest Processor for Laptop From Intel
Intel offers plenty of choice among its mobile processors, built exclusively for laptop computers. Its hyperthreading and Turboboost technology has given Intel an edge over AMD in recent times. Here are the fastest of the whole lot chosen for you.
