All CPUs branded "Pentium 4" are single-cored.
The Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz processor is a single core processor, but if you'd like to upgrade to dual core, have a look at the Intel Pentium 4 531 3.0GHz Processor Upgrade RH008AV.
With the dual core you can process more, but with the pentium at a slightly higher rate, I'd go with the celeron however.
Dual core E5200 (2.5GHz 2M) is better more than pentium d 925 (3GHz 4M), There is big different. E5200 performance equal double D925 performance.
you need to be more specific (specific dual core pentium model) as various dual core pentium processors have been created over the years that use several different socket types
No, it has single core technology. These are the options that come with that model: Intel Pentium 4 that runs at 1.80, 2.00, 2.40, or 2.50 GHz Intel Celeron that runs at 1.70, 2.00, 2.10, 2.20, or 2.30 GHz
Core 2 duo 2.3 ghz is faster than Pentium D, because it has already 2 processors ^ the above statement is totally incorrect. The person that wrote it seems to not realize that Pentium D is Pentium 4 Dual Core. So 3.4ghz DUAL core is FASTER then a 2.3ghz DUAL core
yes
Benchmark-wise, the Pentium Dual-Core E2200 is much faster than any Pentium 4. it also runs cooler and requires less power. While individual games may differ in their performance, most games these days are optimized for multiple processors, and the newest games will in fact require one.
Intel Pentium 4 refers to a single core running at 2.0 ghz of processing power while a core 2 duo running at 2.0 ghz means 2 separate cores each runnin at 2.0 ghz giving you a total of 4.0 ghz of processing power
It really depends on the game.
All Pentium 4s are single-core, so I'm not sure where you're getting "2 CPU" from. This may come from later Pentium 4s' use of HyperThreading, which is presented to the operating system as two processors, though only consisting of one.
Yes, because the computer with a 2.4 GHz dual core works nearly twice as fast than a 2.5 single core.
