Can software designed to run on Pentium 4 processor be run on Pentium 3 processor?
I'd say yes but It may be slower and may crash at times. The pentium 4 processor is faster than the Pentium 3 processor so using the pentium 3 processor made for something that is faster than it's self will have it's drawbacks and may have complications.
How would you know if the processor is manufactured by a company of processor?
in the processor it self it should say the make and model. like Intel Pentium 4 or AMD 64.
What does it mean for a computer to have a 16-bit processor?
When you say that a computer has a 16 bit processor, you mean that the fundamental data size of the accumulator and registers is 16 bits. Examples of 16 bit processors include the DEC PDP-11, the Intel 8086/8088, and the MODCOMP Classic, circa 1980.
How much faster is an Intel i7 processor than a Pentium m processor 2.00 ghz?
Much faster. I cannot say exactly how much faster is it, but at least 5-6 times.
What is the old processer?
The term "old Processor" is not a standard term. This means that processor with old technology.Like Pentium-I.You can say that P-I is an old processor as today world have very very high speed processor compared to P-I.As we have i5 and i7 latest processors.
Can the Intel Pentium G620 processor handle star wars the old republic?
well... to really say they can't handle all of it but some of it they might. this is how it would be on an intel pentium G620 processor it would let you play on it for a maximum of 20mins then it would start lagging then in a total of 40 mins the games screen would go white and it would say check graphics card or renew it
Explain the need for different types of processors?
Basically there are two types of processors which are manufactured by two companies and they are Intel and AMD. Now there are a number of varieties available in both Intel and AMD. Intel offers Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Celeron, Pentium II Xeon, Pentium III, Pentium II and III Xeon, Celeron with Pentium III Based, Pentium 4, Pentium M, Intel Core, Dual Core Xeon LV, Intel Pentium Dual Core, Intel Core 2. Pentium Duo, Pentium Dual Core, Core 2 Quad, Intel Pentuim 2 Dual Core Processor. AMD processors include AMD Athlon, AMD Athlon 64, AMD Athlon X2, AMD Athlon Xp, AMD Duron, AMD Sempron, AMD Turion, MD Opteron and AMD Phenom 1. Moreover, there are various processors offered by various companies like Macintosh processor. In other words different processors are used for different types of technology.
What is the size of int in 128 bit computer?
I think it is safe to believe that it depends on the processor architecture. When you say 128-bit computer, this may mean different things. There is no such thing as an "128 bit computer". The design may allow 128bit core (processor) in which case an int most likely be 128bit. Or it may imply that only the bus is 128 bit. Or both. One may assume that on the 128bit Intel processor when it becomes available , the size of an integer data type will be 128bit IF it has an 128bit core, and not just the bus.
How fast is a 600 MHz processor vs 1ghz processor?
1ghz is faster then 600 mhz Edit- Not really. A 1GHz processor cycles through instructions faster, but take this for thought. What if you have Processor 1, which is at 1GHz but does 2 operations per cycle. This processor has a small L1 Cache and a high cache miss rate. Lets say this is a 16-bit processor with an 8-bit bus width (Older desktop processors) Processor 2 runs at 600MHz but does 4 operations per cycle, a large L1 Cache, and an extremely low cache miss rate. This is a 32-bit processor with a 16-bit bus width (Older server processors) Processor 2 will be more than TWICE as fast in actual performance. Don't go by the GHz / MHz readings alone.
What actually you mean by 64-bit when you say 64 bit processor?
64bit processors have most registers specially the integer registers as 64bit. It can handle 64bit wide internal and external data. All internal and external buses may or may not be 64bit wide. - Neeraj Sharma
How many types of CPU?
There are many types of CPU's.. 3 types of CPUs are: CISC: Complex Instruction Set Computers RISC: Reduced instruction Set Computers MISC: Minimal Instruction Set Computer
Is an Intel Celeron processor a dual core processor?
There are Celeron dual core processors today. However, just because you have Celeron processor, it does not mean your Celeron processor is a dual core processor. The easiest way to tell is to look at the Intel sticker on your computer. If it says "Dual Core," then it is dual core. If it does NOT say "Dual Core," then it is not dual core.
