Hi ...
I am going to assemble a PC in 2 days ... i wanted to ask that how can i distinguish b/w a 65nm processor and a 90 nm processor while buying.
I want AMD 3800+ proccy ... so which is a better choice :
1. ASUS M2NPV-VM with Nvidia 6150+n430 or
2. Biostar AMD 690G +SB600 ???

waiting for replies ..........

obviously the second one is better for integrated graphics department but i am not sure about overclocking on this board.

Regarding the procy nm,i think they both have different product nos.Google for it.

thnks for the reply .....

Biostar AMD 690G +SB600,MSI & ASUS also have same chipset(check the prices)

I think the X3800+ doesn't come with the 65nm FAB.

Amd X2 3600+ AM2 *www.amdcompare.com/us-en/desktop/details.aspx?opn=ADO3600IAA5DD

Cool then read specs on the box marked with these....above link.

Still The X2 3800+ is 90nm.Even there are 6 models of 3800+ but none of them are 65nm.

If still wanna go for the X2 3800+ then go for the 35Watt one.

thnx for ur replies ... so which one is better deal .... 3600+(65nm) or 3800+(90nm). I also own a 3600+ .. so how to check whether its 65nm or 90 nm ??

Use utilities like CPUZ(Just google it) to know which FAB is yr processor.
Yes 65nm should be definitely better than 90nm.

cheers,
