Talking about Intel's Lower end processor's performance over AMD....I have a 5 year old Acer laptop with Intel Celeron 1.86Ghz chip/1.5 Gb ram/120 Gg hard disk (but 965 mother board).. The videos are looking better than my latest purchase AMD Brazos C50/4Gb ram/320 Gb hard disk with so called in built Radeon HD 6250M graphic card... Long battery hours is the only saving grace for AMD laptop.Both running Win 7 ultimate.rs 5000 more than the AMD C50 laptop,I bought recently Lenovo-Intel B950 (sandybridge) Laptop. works much better.This will be my last AMD laptop.

are you tryin to buy a low end pc, or budget is your main concern.??????
if budget is not your main concernand you are ready to shell out some extra bucks then being a hardcore techie i would suggest you to and pull the price tag up or wait until ur ready. and its far more better to get room for " OverClocking".
Coz Hardware prices becoming a pain......u might want to get a hardware that u can extract more juice out of it later. So OverClockin your chips is a must nowadays and it not a taboo like old days.
/as for now....
1. Consider a SSD as ur primary boot device and 1tb as secondary.
2. Consider Asus/Gigabyte for boards....but asus is the best.
3. Consider a Unlocked intel Processor.
/also consider cutting down on Memory ram. can save some bucks here when u can get the same performance from an alternative.
/ does ur board really supports 12800mhz speed in dual or triple channels of memory?????? m doubtfull (clear me if m wrong) but that thing will lead to Hardware Bottlenecks.

I am still thinking what should I be doing, delaying the damage or get it right away.Couple of people have suggested to wait, I am wondering what exactly do they mean..Do they want me to get the newest technology processor or the old one but at better prices.Let the off topic medicine continue, I like it.
The new alienware laptops are using the ivy bridge.
