hammermtl Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Hey guysI've been trying to find reviews on ultra low voltage mobile processors but have had little luck. Do any of you have any experiance with them?In terms of performance will i be happy or is multitasking a pipe dream with this processor?Thanks josh
rikgale Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 I've a 1.1Ghz ULV Centirno in my L.T. I like it for it's speed. It is a lot quicker than I was expecting I have to say, but I suppose it depends what your expectations are.It multitasks about as well as you'd expect for a single core/no HT cpu.I'm waiting for dual core Yonah's to come out, and gonna build a low power drawing machine, as a main desktop
Zxian Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 I think the ultra low voltage processors are more meant for longer battery life as opposed to high power.If you want something with more power, I'd look into getting a laptop with the Sonoma core processor. They're good on battery life and still give you ample power.
Martin L Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 only english reviews i gues? did you check anandtech?
hammermtl Posted July 19, 2005 Author Posted July 19, 2005 my use for this would be to run xp pro (maybe with a bunch of cut services to save resources) office 2003 (everything from excel to visio and mappoint), photoshop and maybe doom 3 Is a new version of the ULV expected soon?
