    Is there a difference between P9600 and T9600?

    I recently got an XPS 1640 as a replacement for my M1530 and in the order details, it says the processor is a P9600 but when i run a dxdiag on my laptop, it says my processor is a T9600. Are they the same thing?

    Essentially the same CPU in terms of performance, but the P9600 is more power-efficient.
