65nm AMD 3600 with 90nm ?????

[harryneopotter]

Hi ...
I am going to assemble a PC in 2 days ... i wanted to ask that how can i distinguish b/w a 65nm processor and a 90 nm processor while buying.
I want AMD 3800+ proccy ... so which is a better choice :
1. ASUS M2NPV-VM with Nvidia 6150+n430 or
2. Biostar AMD 690G +SB600 ???

waiting for replies ..........

obviously the second one is better for integrated graphics department but i am not sure about overclocking on this board.

Regarding the procy nm,i think they both have different product nos.Google for it.

I think the X3800+ doesn't come with the 65nm FAB.

Amd X2 3600+ AM2 http://www.amdcompare.com/us-en/desk...=ADO3600IAA5DD

Cool then read specs on the box marked with these....above link.


Still The X2 3800+ is 90nm.Even there are 6 models of 3800+ but none of them are 65nm.

If still wanna go for the X2 3800+ then go for the 35Watt one.

thnx for ur replies ... so which one is better deal .... 3600+(65nm) or 3800+(90nm). I also own a 3600+ .. so how to check whether its 65nm or 90 nm ??

[dabster]

Use utilities like CPUZ(Just google it) to know which FAB is yr processor.
Yes 65nm should be definitely better than 90nm.

cheers,
