Now that the Intel Atom N280 has arrived (c/o the Acer Aspire One D150), we'll try to take a look if this slightly higher-clocked CPU is indeed faster than its predecessor. So, we compared it to the Atom N270 and got the following results: A quick run thru Super Pi showed the N280 (1.66GHz) edging slightly faster than the N270 (1.6GHz). The main difference between the N270 and the N280 is actually in the bus speed (133Mhz vs. 166MHz) as shown in the CPUId below: Also check out our comparison of the Atom Z539 vs. After trying out the Sony Vaio P, I was curious whether there's any performance difference between the Intel Atom Z530 and the Atom N270. Clock for clock, the Atom N270 beats the Z530 in Super Pi by as much as 35%. Despite Intel's suggestion that the new Atom N330 Dual Core was made for nettops, that doesn't mean netbooks can't have them installed onboard.
