What are the i3 i5 and i7 processors and how are they better than the Core 2 series?
The Intel "iCore" line is Intel's newest line of processors. The lowest, the i3, is to replace the Core 2 Duo series while the i5 replaces the Core 2 Quad series. The i7 is a brand new series quad-core series. The iCore ranges from a dual-core (i3) up to the newest addition, a hexa-core (i7 Extreme).
The best feature about the iCore line is their HyperThreading Technology, meaning it has two processing threads per core. Basically it means that a dual-core will simulate a quad-core while a quad-core simulates an octa-core. It also utilises a new architecture, so if you have the older Core 2 processors, you'll need a new motherboard to support an iCore upgrade. Data transfer speeds are a lot faster due to the replacement of the frontside bus by Intel's Quickpath InterConnect.
What else can I help you with?
Which of these processors is best out of Intel Core i3 or AMD A-Series or Intel Pentium Dual Core?
This depends on what type of A-Series you are talking about, but the i3 is better than the Pentium Dual Core although they are based on the same microarchitecture.
Is 2.0 GHz CPU is better than 1.86 GHz CPU?
Yes & no. If they are both single-core (one processor) than yes, the 2.0GHz is clocked at a higher speed. But in the case of multi-core processors it varies...such as: A 3.0GHz single-core CPU is "equivalent" to at 1.5GHz dual-core (two processors) CPU. Or a 1.5GHz Quad-core (four processors) CPU is faster than a 1.5GHz dual-core CPU because it'd be 1.3GHz x 4 processors versus 1.5GHz x 2 processors.
Is the amd bulldozer quad core fx-4100 3.60ghz better than the amd a8-5600k trinity quad core unlocked 3.6ghz?
Yes it is. The new bulldozer series of processors go very ahead in the run against the old trinity series.
Are computers better data processors than humans?
Are computers better data processors than humans
Is Intel Core i5 powerful than core 2 Quad processors?
Yes. In simple. Better, newer, more power efficient, smaller transistor sizes etc.
What is the difference between core 2 duo and dual core processors?
the difference is core 2 duo gives more cooler temperature and supports more features than dual core processors
Is single core processor will support multi threaded program?
Of course it will run. But it will not be making full utilization of the multi-core architecture. In that aspect, single-core processors with more processing power are sometimes better suited to run single threaded application than multi-core processors with less processing power.
What is better then AMD or Intel processors?
Intel tends to make better processors than AMD.
Is a quad core processor fast compared to other types of processors?
Yes, a quad-core processor is generally faster than dual-core or single-core processors because it can handle more tasks simultaneously.
Is a motherboard with two processors better than a motherboard with one dual core processor?
It depends on model. Some motherboards support two processors with four cores each. Usually two processors systems are used for server applications or as a workstations and do not work well as gaming stations. When usual desktops can have one dual core processor and perform better in gaming than the workstations.
Are AMD processors a better value than Intel processors?
Not really a better value but more efficient for use,it has better speeds.
Is a higher MHz on a processor better?
Not necessarily. Many factors affect the performance of a processor. There was a time when AMD processors outperformed Intel processors that ran over 1000 MHz "faster." Today, Intel's newer processors, such as the Core i7, Core Duo, and Core 2 Duo, run at a lower clock rate than the previous Pentium 4s. MHz is only really useful when you are comparing two otherwise similar processors with the same architecture.
