guys i wanted to know whats the diff. in performance between 65nm and 90nm amd proc. also is there any price diff. for the same?

yes... there is difference..

to know about 65nm check this... *en.wikipedia.org/wiki/65_nanometer

and about the price.. there is definetely diff in it..

i bought P4 3.0GHz procy for Rs.8700/- with 65nm.. at that time the price of 90nm was Rs.8000/- (june 2006)

^^^^ actually i was looking for the price diff. in AMD X2 64 prcessors like 4800+ and 5200+. any idea?

more or less the same... but insist on 65nm when buying... seller often sell 90nm procy's

Well .. lets summarize (short one :p) :

65 nm :

(i) much newer
(ii) consumes less power , so less heat generated
(iii) smaller in size (literally)
(iv) lower manufacturing cost

90 nm :

All the inverse of the above :D ...

Hope that helps ..

do u mean 65nm heats faster than 90nm?

No way ... like i said .. the 65nm requires much less operation voltage .. so its obvious it'd run cooler ...

^^ I think it was. I mean I faintly remember all procs below the x2 5000+ were of 65nm arch.
AMD was to launch other higher (5200;5600;6000 etc. etc. etc.) variants of x2 this year in the 65nm version.

^^^Sorry to say this dude,but all those belong to BRISBANE core are 65nm....AFAIK.
