Question

i bought a labtop and i chose Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo Processor P8400 (2.26 GHz) because under it it said Superior performance for your entertainment applications with smooth multitasking wanted to know if its good avg or wat??

Answer 1

It's categorized between average-high, not high-end but between medium and high.

The reason why it says superior performance is because it has 2 cores (2 logical processors) to share the work, that way more tasks can be done smoothly. But please note that the processor isn't made for any heavy gaming.

Answer 2

It's pretty good. On a laptop, you don't get much better than 2.5GHz dual-core.
