You could check the speed of your cpu with CPU-Z (CPUID) if you are interested. I wouldn't trust dxdiag too much as it incorrectly reports my CPU speed too.
Oh okay, I will do. Thank you so much for your help.
I think I'll keep this one as I'm just a student and my main needs are just facebook, youtube, itunes and ms office. :)
It tells me my core speed is 1500.3 MHz.
Is that a good enough speed?
Thanks again.
You are welcome.
As i said, for basic tasks this notebook is not bad. And it has a decent amount of RAM (3gb), that's nice cause win 7 loves RAM. It really doesn't make that much of a difference if 1.2GHz or 1.5GHz, but of course the higher number gives you a little more performance
Just out of curiosity, any lags when watching youtube in fullscreen?
No lag at all. I tried a lot of video hosting sites and they all seemed fine. Youtube, BBC iplayer, etc.
However, the one that I could not watch whatsoever was MEgaVideo. Not sure why though.
Thanks a lot for helping.
A good one might be the ASUS X50R it looks pretty good fore the money.
