Quad core laptop

[JohnS]

Can anyone suggest a good quad core laptop for chess? Is Intel better than AMD for chess?

Thanks.

What do you want to use it for?
Analysis?
Online play?
Human verses computer play?
Something else?

There's no contest for Intel vs AMD, Intel beats it hands down.

Mostly analysis and study so speed is important.

Thanks

Yep, no contest.
By the way, anyone know whether there is a 6 or 8 Core Intel Laptop around yet ?

They were around a while ago but they silently pulled them as probably no one was buying them. I remember seeing them all around and then POOF no one was selling them. I am going to look around later but I was just looking at some just a while ago, just got up, making breakfast.

Hi
Does L3 cache size matter in chess?

They are out there but scarce. I remember them being out there but who would really buy it? We would in a heartbeat because we're computer chess nuts and the programs can take advantage of the multi cores and faster is better usually.

Hmm, that bugs me cause I know not to long ago (2 mos. ago) I was looking at some and I was surprised to see that you could order them. I'll look later on today. Gotta do some bicycling. I have to keep this Greek, Adonis-like body in shape

You can find the owners of such by going to the local swimming pool. Look for those with bandages across their thighs caused by severe burns. Or look for those madly looking for electrical outlets since their batteries only last for 15 minutes.

I got around this problem by using non-conductive pants/long shorts and utilizing a solar powered battery pack. It's a hit among the upper echelons of society. Right now we're sipping martini's by the pool. Bob, you're welcome to pop by if you want.

We also have sizzling eye candy for waitresses that serve us hand & foot. It looks like they are totally nude but they are wearing my new invention, ClearWear© -- "Not seeing is believing" is the sales pitch.
