xfxf Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 most people look at this problem at the wrong angle. the cpu you use isn't anywhere near as important as the supporting chipset. get a shitty chipset, and you'll have a hell of an experience trying to do anything audio related. (i'm talking the motherboard chipset, rather than just the audio chipset). which chipsets are you looking at for the laptops you're considering?

Guest mutchy Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 the chipset is Mobile Intel 915GM Express if that means anything to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCM Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I'd vote Turion! That's what I've got in my laptop and it kicks ass.....my mate's got an expensive Vaio with a Centrino and it can't handle half as many VSTs as my cheaper, no-make (well, it's an Advent) laptop.

Guest cosmonaut Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 yep, i've never had a problem with my turion - and it's only got 512MB of ram (been meaning to up to a gig but just haven't gotten round to it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
