The SU7300 is an extremely capable and comparable processor to the T4500
You're comparing a CULV processor clocked to 1.3GHz to a non-CULV processor clocked to 2.3GHz. How can you even compare them?

The SU7300 gets a 3DMark 06 rating of 1167. The T4400, slower than the T4500, gets a score of 1900. CPU Benchmark lists the SU7300 at below 1000, and the T4500 is at 1500.

You can't compare a CULV processor to one that isn't. You just can't. Yet you tried Roll

and can expect three to four times the battery performance.
Rofl2 The laptop CC bought will probably get over 4 hours of battery life. You really think the SU7300 can give 12-16 hours of battery? Rofl2 Even the Atom can't achieve that.

Quote :
That's significant enough difference especially if mobility is desired.
CC doesn't need that though. From what she told me, a CULV processor will not benefit her whatsoever. If you only need 3-4 hours of battery life max, why throw away as much performance as you are saying to?

You don't know what the IB program is, do you? You don't really get a choice in what classes you take. The math class I took Junior and Senior year of HS was a two-year IB Math class, that covered Calc.

I also did something that the valedictorian didn't do, and that was get a 6 on the IB exam.

no, that's why I asked why you would take it if you don't have a chance to build college credits in high school Dontknow

That makes no sense to me, either. Why the hell would you take it in high school just to have to take it again in college? Huh

Those are the "facts" stated by the respective manufacturers. Actual real world performance is always YMMV.

A processor is a processor, kiddo. They can be compared in terms of real world performance and benefit the end user. Always.

Arithmetic benchmarks only tell a small part of the story. I know just a wee bit about comparing processors and especially comparing ULV processors to their more power hungry equivalents.


I've owned and used several CULV and T series processors and compared them first hand in terms of real world performance, not synthetic benchmarks.

Have you? Or is this another example of how you don't say and act as if you know everything? Smilie

I graduated HS with 3 semesters of college credit. IB exams are on the same level as AP, if not higher. Some colleges weight AP and IB the same, others rank IB ahead of AP.

The main example they gave us was always Univ of Florida, that ranked IB ahead of AP. Apparently, the lowest GPA you can have when you apply to UF (and expect to get accepted) is a 3.75 if you are an AP student but an IB student only needs a 3.25.
