“I’m a high school student and thinking of buying a laptop soon for school and personal use. Just wondering which is better Intel or AMD processor in laptops.”
For laptops right now Intel processors are definitely the way to go, Intel mobile processors run cooler, get better battery life, and they run faster. AMD currently are trying to catch up with Intel and a little competition is a good thing for consumers and with competition these companies are cranking out great processors. If you asked me a few years ago I would of said AMD is the best bang for you buck processor, but as of now Intel with their latest Core 2 Duos on the laptops and desktop are the winners in this race. For portable computing Intel’s got the edge on battery life, heat, and power.
