and there kinda cheap too , although still not in my budget

if u think these r good, just wait for the the pentium m on the yonah core, its gonna be dual core, higher fsb, pci-e,dual ddr2, and prolly with 64bit entesions!

The Pentium-M's would be amazing overclockers. I remember seeing some benchmarks of a Dothan overclocked to 2.5GHz, and it ended up slaughtering every other CPU tested.

Yeah, but I think the AMD64 was only clocked at 2.2GHz as opposed to the 2.5GHz that the Dothan was set to.
I can't recall if they tested it with the Athlon FX. Wonder what the results would be like if they were both set to 2.2GHz or 2.5GHz.

well at stock speed (pentiun m 755- 2.0ghz, AFX-55 2.6GHz) the pm is pretty close to the afx at most benchies, since thea afx has its multi unlocked guess it can be oc'ed real easy. u no intel shud have released the dothan on the desktop as the mainstream Pentium 5, the current prescotts suck and they are too highly priced!
