If you preffer FPS then the Z92T is better than Z96/S96J in 3DMark06 and it seem more accurate for future gaming and new platforms. In order for Merom/Yonah to get the simliar result in 3DMark2006 required overclock the GPU while Taylor/GeForce Go 7600 only use stock driver.

This would be great, and I'd love to see AMD come out on top, but at least according to Tom's Hardware's review of the Turion X2 vs Core Duo that came out yesterday, their final conclusion is that the Turion takes the backseat to the Core Duo. And that's not even really trying it out against Merom yet. But as long as it's still noticeably fast, battery life would be the next concern, and personally I'd like to see how Tyler (65nm) performs against Merom (whenever AMD gets their act together and releases it). Speaking of which, any new info on the release of the 65nm AMD chips?
Link to Tom's Hardware article in case any of you are interested.
