What are the different types of CPUS?
Too many to even begin to list here, forget describing the architectures.
Why you use core word with recent microprocessor?
Cores are basically the amount of CPUs packed into one CPU. So say, the dual-core (2 core) CPUs have the power of 2 cpu's packed into one unit. Originally, they just had the single-core CPUs, but recently, they've created the dual-core, tri-core, quad-core, and six-core CPUs. Hope this helps! SeanHolshouser
Difference betwen dual core and core to duo?
A "dual core" CPU is one that has 2 CPU cores (as opposed to 1 in older computers). "Core 2 Duo" is line of (dual core) CPUs produced by Intel.
What is AMD x2?
AMDs 'dual core' CPUs, those that contain 2 CPU cores, as opposed to the 1 CPU core found in earlier AMD (and intel, VIA, cyrix etc) CPUs. Dual core CPUs have much better multitasking performance than traditional single core CPUs.
What is the AMD Phenom?
The AMD Phenom series of CPUs is AMDs QUAD-CORE series of CPUs and are available at a start of around $200+ sold seperately. Only some of the most advanced motherboards of todays era of computers (march '09) are compatible with these processors. Please look up your motherboard's model number and refer to the company's website to confirm its compatibility with the Phenom processor.

Multiply by 2 for dual core?
That can either mean a dual-socket machine with dual-core CPUs (two CPUs with two cores each) or a quad-core CPU (one CPU with four cores).
In a coumpter what is known as the core?
The central processing unit (CPU). In the past, CPUs used to only have 1 core, but with the multiple cores in computers now, it is like having multiple CPUs.
What is the difference between pentium 4 and core 2 quad?
The latest of the Pentium 4 processors were hyperthreaded single core CPUs, while the Core 2 is newer and faster, with more features, and the quads have 4 true cores and does not use hyperthreading. A personal rule of thumb is to consider hyperthreading as an extra half a core. So 4 CPUs on one chip/die (Core 2 quad) is more appealing then 1.5 CPUs (Pentium 4).
Does a Dual core 3.4ghz CPU have a speed of 3.4ghz or 6.8ghz?
Dual core means two CPUs so what you really have is to CPUs each run at the speed of 3.4 Ghz and not one CPU that runs at 6.8GHz... Programming your Life...
Pentium 4 2.8 ghz single core dual core?
All CPUs branded "Pentium 4" are single-cored.
How do operating systems handle Multi-core CPUs?
They are treated exactly like two separate CPUs. Any operating system that can use multiple CPUs can also use a processor with multiple internal cores, with no changes needed to the code.
