Is it better to have a fast processor with ddr2 or a slower processor with ddr3? Purchased satellite 505 with AMD turion ultra (2.4) and 4g of ddr2 but am considering returning for Fujitsu with Intel i3 and 4G ddr3.
 
Solution
A difference in processor speed will be much more important than the difference between DDR2 & DDR3, However I haven't read much on the i3, so I couldn't tell you how it performs compared to anything else. Remember, due to differences in design just because one has a higher clock speed does not always mean it will perform better.
