HOW TO CHOOSE LAPTOPS BASED ON ITS PROCESSOR

Buying a laptop is quite different from buying a desktop. Because of how laptop parts are designed and fitted on a per-laptop-model basis, the laptop components that you get with a laptop purchase are the very components youll have to live with until the next purchase.
As a consequence, ull have to decide very carefully whether you can do with a laptops given specs for as long as youll have that computer. Your laptop will always become outdated faster than desktops, of course; but you do still have a small sayas to how long that takes. 

When it comes to processors, you wont only be considering how powerful it is. More than that, youll also have to consider how well it manages power expenditure. Because portability places a premium on how long a devices battery can last, the ideal processor is a laptop part that goes full-power on tasks that really need it, and that can scale back on applications that arent as important.
Of course, different users have different ideas aboutwhich programs actually call for the whole nine yards. Therefore, the best way to go about this is probably with the five different laptop categories, since each type of laptop calls for certain general user preferences.


Budget Laptops
Budget laptops are designed with the most basic tasks in mind. This means that programs like word processors, webbrowsers, DVD players and such will be no trouble for their processors to run. Although relatively new video games and a high-def media content can still be played, these are best run when the budget laptop is connected to a stationary power source.

If you only use basic programs most of the time, budget laptops are the way to go. For these laptops,the following processors are adequate:
*. AMD A4-3300M
*. AMD A6-3400
*. AMD E-350
*. AMD E-450
*. Intel Core i3-2100M
*. Intel Pentium B940

Ultraportables
Being lightweight, ultraportables are ideal for people who are on the road a lot, but who still want to use the occasional resource-heavy program whenever the mood strikes. Not a lot of processing power is required of these computers, but their processors should still be hefty enough to run a video game every now and then.
*. AMD A6-4455M
*. AMD A10-1655M
*. Intel Core i3-2310M
*. Intel Core i3-2310E
*. Intel Core i5-2410M

Netbooks
Netbooks are usually smaller than ultraportables. They are also cheaper. By definition, they are less powerful than ultras, meaning their processors are within the power range of budget laptops.
While very portable, netbooks have nonetheless become less popular due to their limited functionalities. If youre the type of user who travelsa lot but who only uses the very basic programs though, netbooks are for you.
*. AMD C-30
*. AMD E-240
*. Intel Atom N2600
*. Intel Atom N450
*. Intel Atom N550
*. Intel Atom Z550
*. Intel Atom Z560

Thin-n-Lights
While not really called that, thin-n-lights nonetheless deserve a category of their own. These are computers that are somewhere between regular laptops andultraportables, both in size and power. That is, they are bigger and perform better than ultras, but are still dwarfed by 14-inchers and above.

*. AMD A4-3300M
*. AMD A6-3400
*. AMD A8-3500M
*. AMD A8-4500M
*. Intel Core i3-2310M
*. Intel Core i5-2410M
*. Intel Core i7-2620M
*. Intel Core i7-3610QM
*. Intel Core i7-3920XM


Desktop Replacements
Finally, we have desktop replacements, so named because their laptop components rival those of desktops, except that they are housed in a portable casing. Expectedly, some of themost powerful laptop processors are found in this category.
*. AMD A8-3500M
*. AMD A8-4500M
*. AMD A10-4600M
*. Intel Core i7-2630QM
*. Intel Core i7-2920XM
*. Intel Core i7-3610QM
