    After reading all those great reviews, I still can't come to a conclusion :confused: .

    FYI the A6T i've found very little info bout:

    Display: 15,4", WXGA Resolutie 1280x800
    Processor: Mobile AMD Turion TL52 (1.60Ghz)
    Chipset: C51MV(C61)+MCP51
    Geheugen: 1GB (1x1GB) DDR2 PC5300 (max 2GB)
    Videokaart: nVidia GeForce Go 7600 128MB
    Harddisk: 100GB Ultra DMA 100
    @ 1100 EURO

    The reason I'm considering this X2 is because of the 7600. The other to comparable machines are duo cores, but come only equipped with 7300.
    A8JC-H033H
    Display: 14", WXGA Resolutie 1280x768
    Intel Centrino Duo
    Processor: Mobile Intel Core Duo T2300 (1.66Ghz)
    Bussnelheid: 667Mhz
    L2 Cache: 2MB
    Chipset: Intel 945PM
    Geheugen: 1GB (1x1GB) DDR2 PC5300 (max 2GB)
    Videokaart: nVidia GeForce Go7300 256MB TurboCache
    Harddisk: 100GB
    same price

    the a6jc
    Display: 15,4", WXGA Resolutie 1280x800
    Intel Centrino Duo
    Processor: Mobile Intel Core Duo T2300 (1.66Ghz)
    Bussnelheid: 667Mhz
    L2 Cache: 2MB
    Chipset: Intel 945PM
    Geheugen: 1GB DDR2
    Videokaart: GeForceT Go 7300 128MB TurboCache
    Harddisk: 100GB

    Firstly the model, is the A8 better than the A6? I heard alot about a6 heat problems.
    Second the amd ? I bet i'll be more power hungry (not my concern) but how about preformance wise ? Does anybody own the A6T ?
    Any help would be glady appreciated :)

    I think the Core Duo is still faster than the amd x2 turion. However the go 7600 sounds very tempting - however its bound to create more heat than the go7300.

    So basically it's a tie then between:

    X2 + geforce 7600 + (heat) = duoCore + 7300

    The only variable I need to solve this equation the heat !

    Anybody hier on the forum own a A6T ?
