    Does anyone know of benchmarks for the new AMD mobile CPU's. Finally AMd released CPU based on the PII core. These should be competitive against atleast "Penryn".

    The new AMD CPU's will have around 2MB of cache. Intel procs in general have 3 or 6 MB of cache. Does Intel have some technology which makes it's cache smaller or more power efficient which enables it to easily have more cache on their CPU's?
