It means that there are two cores on one chip. It is sort of like gluing two single core processors together if that helps to visualize it. It is good for multitasking because each program can use one core and some can use both at once. Both Cores operate at 1 GHz.

What is the power rating for ipads ipods and phones?
The power of the A4 processor is a 1 Ghz processor. This processor is a dual core model and is used on the iPad 2, iPhone and iPod Touch.
Can I play games with 1GB ram and 1 GB graphic card with Pentium Dual Core 2.00 GHz Processor?
It really depends on the game.
Is it better to have a 1.5 GHz dual core processor or a 3.0 GHz?
the 1.5 dual core can handle 2 threads at the same time and 3.0 single core can only handle 1 thread both of them switch threads rapidly if you have CPU-z you will find that the only difference in number of threads (the number of cores in single core is 2) short answer : the dual core is faster in multitasks the single core is faster in single task (like most of games)
When choosing a game that requires 3GHZ processor and one has a dual core processor of 2.3GHZ does this count as 4.6GHZ meaning that the game can be played?
Two things here: 1. No, a dual-core processor does not "count" as 2x the clock speed. If you disable one of the cores on a dual-core processor, the chips will still run at the same clockspeed, and will perform about the same on single-threaded applications, like most games. 2. Most processors these days are dual-core, and they are more efficient and faster than older single-core chips, even though they have a lower clockspeed. Your probably requires a 3 GHz Pentium 4, and you have a newer and faster processor than that.
Is the Intel T4200 Processor Dual core?
Yes, it has 2 cores running at 2 GHz a peice. The info below was taken directly from Intel. Essentials Status Launched Launch Date Q1'09 Processor Number T4200 # of Cores 2 Clock Speed 2 GHz L2 Cache 1 MB FSB Speed 800 MHz FSB Parity Instruction Set 64-bit Embedded Supplemental SKU Lithography 45 nm Max TDP 35 W
Is this a good and fast processor Intel pent dual core processor e2140 1 60ghz 800mhz fsb1mb cache?
Yes.
When buying a computer how much GHz do you need?
The answer can be "the fastest you can afford" or "it depends on what you want the computer to do." Speed in computers (usually expresed as Ghz) is a measurement of how fast they can calculate. If you are buying a general purpose computer, buy what you can afford. If you have a special purpose in mind (a web server or a home server) then you can probably buy an older, less powerful computer that will meet your needs for considerably less money than a new computer.
What processor does Windows 7 need?
Windows 7 is capable of running on any x86 or x86-64 compatible processor that runs at at least 1 GHz. This includes late-model Pentium IIIs, Pentium 4s, Core, Core 2, Pentium Dual-Core, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, Xeon, Athlon XP, Athlon 64, Athlon 64 X2, Phenom, Turion, and Opteron processors.
What is the difference between T5450 and T2330 processors?
The Intel Pentium Dual Core T2330 is a low-end dual core processor for laptops/notebooks. "Pentium Dual Core" processors closely resemble Intel Core Duo processors, except they have only 1 MB of L2 Cache instead of 2 MB. The Intel Core 2 Duo T5450 is also a dual core processor for laptops, but it uses Intel's newer 64-bit "Core 2" architecture. A dual core processor allows simultaneous, parallel program execution - for example, running a filter in Photoshop while ripping an MP3: each process would be executed on a separate "core". It's like having 2 cpu's on one chip. The Pentium Dual Core T2330 runs at 1.6 GHz, has 1 MB of L2 Cache and a Front Side Bus (FSB) speed of 533 MHz. The Core 2 Duo T5450 runs at 1.66 GHz, has 2 MB of L2 Cache and a FSB speed of 667 MHz. The T5450 could be expected to run 25% faster than the T2330 due to its improved Core 2 Duo architecture, larger L2 Cache, slightly higher clock speed and faster FSB.
When we say dual core has 2 core 1 processor what does core here means?
When we talk about Core 2 duo, Core duo, or Core single we are talking about the actual numbers of microprocessors in the computer. When you buy a Core 2 Duo chip, such as the "Wolfdale" series from Intel you get one chip that has two actual processors on it and either one or two L2 Caches. To compare a core 2 duo T8300 processor to a 2.4 ghz chip that only has one processor on it that has a 800mhz FSB, the T8300 would not quite be twice as powerful, but it is more than one and a half times as powerful.
How much would it cost me to upgrade from a Intel Pentium dual core to a core duo 1 or 2 and is it possible?
The cost would depend on the processor you wanted to purchase. An upgrade is probably possible (the Pentium Dual-Core is based on the Core Duo and Core 2 Duo processors) but you would need to make sure your motherboard supports the proper FSB speeds for your processor of choice.
Does the speed of the computer depend on cores?
The number of processor cores are more like a speed multiplier. So the answer is:Yes, when software is designed only for multi core processors or running more then one program.No, when it is a single program and that software is designed to work on a single core processor.If you had only one program running the number of cores would not affect the speed that program ran. This is because only one processor core is used for a single piece of software unless that software is design only to be used on a multi core processor. The number of processor cores increases the speed of a system when the processor is multitasking. The number of cores allow you to run a equal number of programs at the processors speed without sharing the processors resource's.Examples:If you use a Quad core 3 Ghz processor; you could run 4 programs at the same time and each would run 3 GHz without the processor switching between programs. So the result is 12 GHz of processing being handled at one time.If you use a Quad core 3 GHz processor while you ran only 1 program and it was not designed for multi core. The result would be only 3 GHz of processing being handled.If you use a Quad core 3 Ghz processor; you could run more then 4 programs at the same time. The maximum processing being handled would still be no more then 12 GHz.
