Latitude c610 processor
The previous message is jumbled because my 2 year old decided he wanted to work on my laptop they same time I was!
Here is my problem:
I purchased a latitude C610 when I go to check the "current system configuration" at the Dell website it says that the processor is 1.2ghz but the clock speed is 800mhz, but when i checked it a second time it said it was running at 1.2ghz. What the deal??
Thanks,
Jason
- just an FYI, it's called Speedstep. the CPU will slow downw when you are just typing to save power. YOu don't need 1.2Ghz to type do ya? Unless you can type like 1 Million words per minute.. LOL But yeah... great feature Intel came up with. I love it!
Thank you for clearing it up, I was more concerned about whether or not I had been scammed about the CPU speed from the person I had purchased it from. If it was actually and 800 mhz it would not have mattered anyhow, I have 1 gig memory in here and everything works pretty fast as it is. The guy was selling units with 800 mhz in them for about 40$ less, that what would have made me mad if he had sold me one of those. I would have been cracking some skulls:smileymad:! (although my wife would have been really upset if i beat up her brother!:smileyvery-happy: ) I moved up from a 500mhz CPX, but got a great deal on this, its a lot lighter and all of my hardware (drives, adapter) upgraded with it. That was a great unit, It had 512megs of ram and purred like a kitten, but one day the motherboard went pop and that was it:smileysad: to ebay she went, never to bee heard from again.
