– The advantages of 64 bit CPUS. Is there any advantage with 32 bit operating systems?
\n– Dual core\/Dual processor technology
\n– Heat issues.
\n– Turion Laptop \/ mobile technology and how it compares with Centrino (heat, speed, battery life, wireless stability).
\n– Hyperthreading or hypertransport? Are they really hyper or just hype?
\n– How is memory accessed and how is speed optimized?
\n– Virus protection in the CPU? How does that work?
\n– Why choose AMD (in terms of benefits to the clients, not features)?
\n– When is the added cost of the more expensive processor type worth it?<\/p>\n
