DUAL CORE do more

[Bahalina-boy]

Intel Core 2 duo is a dual core processor pod. why mas paspas man sya compare sa uban dual core processor like pentium D og AMD X2? tungod ba kay dako syag cache?

Core 2 Duo has an entirely new architecture than the A64 X2 and Pentium D... based on what i've read, the new architecture is much more effecient thats why mas paspas cya..

simple, it has 4 processors built in it - 2 logical and 2 physical. 2 logical processors you ask? this is because of the Hyperthreading Technology. what's more, it has a bigger cache. cache creates a buffer to store instructions before they are executed by the processor. and so, this would make the Dual Core aka Intel Duo performs faster.

i see. . mao diay mas paspas sya unlike sa Pentium D o X2 na only 2 processors lang without Hyperthreading technology? tama ba ako?
even Core 2 duo E6300 na 1.8 mas kusog pa sa Athlon 64 FX-62 na perting mahala.

FYI...there's no Hyper Threading support in Core 2 Duo...Hyper Threading is supported only on Intel Xeon and Pentium 4 processors...

bitaw.. intel is now winning the processor market with the release of thier core 2 duo procs...

question:

Unsay better upgrade, Intel core 2 duo or AMD s939?

Another important question kay, which is hotter/cooler? Asa ani nila ang lesser power consumption?

My PC is powered by a P4 2.66G na LGA775, then saba kaau ang fan if init ang panahon ^_^;

@catcher

there are different amd s939.... naay athlon 64, naay athlon 64 x2 (dual core), and naay athlon 64 fx. these s939 procs from amd are faster, cooler, eat less power than pentiums, pero.....

core 2 duo is faster, cooler, and eats less power than any of those i mentioned above. therefore core 2 duo is the better upgrade.

Core 2 has no HT. FYI lng. It's only present in Netburst architecture, as of now

dili gyud ni siya exactly new ang architecture sa core 2 duo... in fact... gigamit ra nila ang architecture sa pentium M in creating this processor. [br]Posted on: December 12, 2006, 06:42:11 PM_________________________________________________

better upgrade... but it does not mean it is the most practical upgrade...
