Comparing processors

NibbleNibble Registered User regular
I'm looking into buying an Everex StepNote SA2053T because it's a 12.1" laptop on sale for $599, but I'd like to compare the power of its processor (Pentium Dual-Core Processor T2080) to the one in my current laptop, which is an Athlon 64 3500+.

Is there a good website with benchmarks for these processors? Could anyone give me a general idea of how the two processors should compare?

    Tom's Hardware usually has giant fucking charts for this sort of thing, but offhand I'd say the Pentium DC should handily outperform your old single-core Athlon 64, both in number-crunching and battery life. I'd be quite surprised if it didn't.
