Quote:He did.
I don't know what the lighest game is since I haven't played every single GC/Wii game in existence. But I do know that I have plenty of games that run much faster than NSMB when unlimited.
Quote:EDIT: Oh, um, I just realized; you're missing the "E1 series" in the desktop section - you have the "E2 series" however. You can look at their differences here:

Zacate is not for desktops.
Actually, we're both half-right/wrong. The E1 is laptop only, the E2 is also in desktops however.
Nonetheless, you're missing the E1 series. Yes it's essentially the same as last year's Brazos, but it's still a different name.
In my experience, Animal Crossing GC runs extremely fast. On my laptop I could easily get 4x IR and some AA (D3D9, D3D11, and OpenGL). LLE, EFB->RAM, still ran faster than full speed.
Your laptop is still a Sandy Bridge CPU though. We're talking about a Pentium 4 here...
Yes, but most games don't run full speed on those settings with my GPU. They would usually run at 2/3 speed. Animal Crossing runs at like 3x-5x speed lol.
Animal Crossing was originally an N64 game, so of course the graphics will be it's weak point.
Quote:Just a little overview Netburst is 130nm and Sandy Bridge is 32nm HUGE difference
*Slaps DefenderX with a large trout for trying to lecture us
Netburst was 180nm (willamette, willamette-128), 130nm (northwood, northwood-128, gallatin), 90nm (prescott, prescott-256, prescott-2M, smithfield, smithfield-2M), and 65nm (cedar mill, cedar mill-512, presler).

I fail to see how I was wrong in any way. You just said E1 is laptop only.
Let me rephrase that "Zacate is not supposed to be for desktops". It's an 18w TDP cpu based on the bobcat architecture aimed at netbooks and nettops. There are desktops and servers based on atom but I'm not going to list atom under the desktop section.
Netburst is 130nm and Sandy Bridge is 32nm 
HUGE difference
