It doesn't have 6.0GHz power, it is very rare that a dual core computer with a certain GHz is twice the power as a single core of the same GHz, you must also consider other factors such as RAM, video card, hard drive, etc. also the program that you run must be able to take advantage of 2 cores
the Dual core processor works by have two compact processor cores or brains, set together, side by side, and they both have individual caches. All of the computers processes are routed through one or both of the processor cores. this allows for faster processing.
One is running a single physical processing core at a frequency of 2.4GHz and the other is running two physical processing cores at 2.0GHz. The dual-core processor is signifcantly faster, even if its clock speed is lower, since it has double the processing cores to work with.
A single core processor is just that... one processing core. A dual core processor is actually two processing cores on one chip. It is like having two processors in your system, but it is faster than two individual processors.
The highest number of cores in a single processor chip for consumers (high end servers) is the AMD Opteron 6000 series, with 16 cores per processor, and quad processor motherboards allowing for a total number of 64 x86 cores.
is the processor with dual cores.
6 cores
Core, as in the cores in a computer processor? They don't help in processing, they ARE the processing. Cores can refer to different things if you take the definitions from different vendors (AMD and Intel consider the cores of their processors to be two different things). For simplicity sake, we'll go with integer cores. These handle the floating point calculations, memory reservations, and data flow required to make a computer...compute More cores can mean more processing. There are limitations to anything though, and most programs typically aren't designed to handle more than four threads at once. Again, for simplicity, lets consider a thread a line of instructions sent to a single core. 4 threads = 4 cores. (Intel can have up to 12 threads on their six-core processor via HT technology) Having more cores typically lowers the performance-per-core and power efficiency of a processor, meaning that any program that uses fewer threads will run poorly on a multi-core processor.
Dual-core processors use two cores for processing,they are capable of running more intensive programs,same are the quad-core processors(They use 4 cores for processing).In short,"THE HIGHER THE NUMBER OF CORES,THE BETTER IS THE PROCESSOR"
Four independent cores into a single package composed of a single IC. A dual-core processor contains two cores, and a quad-core processor contains four cores.
A dual core processor has two processing cores, whereas a quad core has four.
