A processing core is a complete, independent processor. Each core has its own ALUs, fetch-execute cycles, pipelines, and cache, but shares some support circuitry with the rest of the processor. A dual-core processor simply means that there are two independent processors in a single package.
Intel Core 2 Duo processors are the next gen processors from Intel. It is developed with a new Architecture called Core. The new architecture of Intel core2 duo makes it a lot better processor that runs cool. Most importantly the Intel core2 duo is a super over clocker.
These details about Intel core 2 duo can be found at http://binaryday.com/2009/01/15/difference-between-Intel-core-2-duo-vs-Intel-dual-core-vs-Intel-Pentium-d/
"Core" is the name of the microprocessor architecture. It's name come from the fact that the architecture was designed to be used in multi-core processors.
A dual core CPU processor is based on the Core 2 Duo, but the former does not process as quickly as the latter. Core 2 Duo is the brand name for a processor.
Core 2 duo is dual core. And before that was core duo which was dual core too...
´Dual core' just means that there are 2 separate cores in the CPU. Intel has made dual core pentuim 4, core duo and core 2 duo CPUs. ´Core 2 Duo´ is just one type of dual core CPU that Intel has made.
There is no difference between dual core and core 2 duo. Intel just name its recent family of dual core processors as "core 2 duo". Both (core 2 duo and dual core) works in same fashion.
Core 2 Duo
core 2 duo will be better.
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.
Dual core is two cores on one chip. core 2 duo is two separate chips. Dual core is slower because they have to share the same input output stream.
A generic "dual core" processor is any processor which has two separate processors on a single chip. This should not be confused with the Pentium Dual-Core, which was a brand of dual core processors which used the Pentium architecture on each core. The Core 2 Duo is also a specific processor from Intel. The Core 2 is a brand of microprocessors based on the Core architecture. The Core 2 Duo specifically refers to a dual core version of the Core 2 brand.
No
the difference is core 2 duo gives more cooler temperature and supports more features than dual core processors
the better processor is core 2 duo
Duo Core means that it has DUAL CORES, meaning 2 cores. So if its a 2.0 GHz Duo Core that means that you double that # and you get 4.0 GHz total. Basically the more cores and the higher GHz, the faster the processor is.
