Im looking at 2 different computers to buy right now. 1 says "AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+" while the other says "AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Dual Core." Is both dual core or just the second? Also, one says "NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE Intergrated Graphics, supporting up to 256MB shared video memory", while the other says "NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE Graphics with 128MB dedicated graphics memory. Up to 319MB total available as allocated by Windows Vista."

So are both dual core? Sounds to me like they are the exact same processor and graphics card. Can someone please help? I dont know much about hardware. Thanks in advance.

Yep, they're both he same, and so are the graphics cards, only 1 has 256mb of vram and the other half that. Dont try to play games with it though (if that's what you're buying it for). The 6150 is an awful card.

Indeed, both are the same spec, but both will be absolutely hopeless for gaming.
