How is jelly most commonly transported from farm to processor to consumer?
Jelly is not made on a farm. It would be made in a processing plant and shipped by truck to retail stores and sold to a consumer.
Is the Intel Core 2 Duo a 64-bit processor?
All Intel Core 2 processors are capable of running in both 32-bit and 64-bit mode.
Does Intel g33 g31 express chipset support FEAR 2 Crysis and nfs undercover?
I am a IT tech here in Niagara Falls Ontario Canada. From my exp the intergrated intel G33-G32 express chip sets will not support FEAR 2 or CRYSIS theses games req a third party GPU (graphics processing unit)... depending on your computers specs I.E desktop compuer/laptop for desktop i PCI -E GPU would be req to play theses games 512 mb or more with at least pixel shader 3.0 or above.
As for Need for Speed Undercover a PCI-Express video card with at least 256mb video memory Because NFS gameplay and graphics is 75 percent software emulated witch means that the computers CPUwith process 75 percent of gameplay where the video card will only have the process the display and framerate of gameplay
in the end if youe desktop or laptop computer has built in 512mb video memory then yes your chipset will play NFS only thats only if you use a preload to manualy set the graphic proerties down inorder for the game to lauach with our error
What is the difference between the Intel 80486 and the Intel Pentium?
They are two different companies. Cyrix is a smaller company, their processors are not as performant as Intel ones, however they would exponse exactly the same set of instructions. Regardless the lack of performance compared with Intel, Cyrix had a very good market in the mid 90s, for people that did not have the money to purchase Intel. Instead of purchasing an Intel at 166 Mhz with 400 dollars, one could purchase a Cyrix at 150 Mhz for only 99 dollars. Of course, the performance of the cyrix would be far smaller, but the price difference would make it worthwile. Had a Cyrix between 97 and 2000. Was very happy with it.
What are the four system bus frequencies used by current Intel processors?
1600, 1333, 1066, or 800 MHz
Explain one limitation of a 16-bit processor to a 64-bit processor?
One limitation of a 16 bit processor, compared to a 64 bit processor, is computing speed.
A 16 bit process can process 2 bytes (8 bits = 1 byte) of information per clock cycle.
While a 64 bit processor can process 8 bytes of information per clock cycle, making the 64 bit processor four times faster than a 16 bit processor.
What computer chip makes everything go?
The central processing unit in a computer is the main chip that "makes everything go." It gets input from programs to execute instructions and control electrical signals.
Centrino
What was in use before Pentium 1?
The Intel 80486("eighty-four-eighty-six") (Marketed i486, spoken as Intel 486)
Can the dell optiplex 780 support an Intel i7 processor?
No sorry the Dell Optiplex 780 can't support a i7, it would have to be a 1155, 1156, 1366 socket compatible motherboard, but your options would be a Intel Core 2 Quad like a Q6700, upwards. Your Dell has a 775 socket.
What are the names of Intel's and AMD's budget lines of processors?
Celeron for Intel and Sempron for AMD

Can you recommend a dual processor motherboard preferably an MSI board that is reasonably new?
MSI has not produced many dual processor boards. The Athlon socket motherboard for MP processors is for 266 DDR FSB chips only. It may pose a problem if the user wanted to upgrade to something better, as the chip would likely not support a 333 FSB or beyond cpu.
However, there are some newer dual opteron motherboards that look promising. Try "googling" 'dual opteron motherboard' and see what results come up. Bear in mind that AMD is going to release a dual core CPU which, in effect, are two cpus on one chip.
Why is Pentium better than celeron?
It is and it isn't. Intel has packaged a large number of different processors as "pentium 2" and "celeron." The celeron tended to be the "budget processor," but due to availability the Celeron frequently was actually a real Pentium 2. The Celerons were labeled and set to report that they were weaker than they really were. This is where overclocking comes in. Overclockers found that Celerons could be overclocked just as well as the Pentium 2 chips on certain production runs. A little more research showed what actually was going on.
Who invented the first microprocessor?
In November, 1971, a company called Intel publicly introduced the world's first single chip microprocessor, the Intel 4004 (U.S. Patent #3,821,715), invented by Intel engineers Federico Faggin, Ted Hoff, and Stan Mazor.
"The Intel_4004is generally regarded as the first microprocessor, and cost thousands of dollars. The first known advertisement for the 4004 is dated November 1971 and appeared in Electronic_News. The project that produced the 4004 originated in 1969, when Busicom, a Japanese calculator manufacturer, asked Intel to build a chipset for high-performance desktop calculators. Busicom's original design called for a programmable chip set consisting of seven different chips. Three of the chips were to make a special-purpose CPU with its program stored in ROM and its data stored in shift register read-write memory. Ted_Hoff, the Intel engineer assigned to evaluate the project, believed the Busicom design could be simplified by using dynamic RAM storage for data, rather than shift register memory, and a more traditional general-purpose CPU architecture. Hoff came up with a four-chip architectural proposal: a ROM chip for storing the programs, a dynamic RAM chip for storing data, a simple I/O device and a 4-bit central processing unit (CPU). Although not a chip designer, he felt the CPU could be integrated into a single chip. This chip would later be called the 4004 microprocessor"
This is usually credited to Ted Hoff at Intel, the 4004.
Actually, the first commercial microprocessor was the AL1 developed by Four Phase Systems. See the Description of this chip on the Computer History Museum timeline: http://www.computerhistory.org/revolution/digital-logic/12/282/1523
How much gold is in a Intel 486 DX2 chip?
depends on the manufacturer and type of 486 for example dx2. between 0.1 - 0.2 grams of gold
Can you replace a amd 250 processor with a amd 265 processor?
Assuming you're talking about the AMD Athlon II X2 250 and the X2 265, yes. They both run on Socket AM3, and are fully interchangeable. Good idea on the upgrade, but for $1 more on Newegg, you can buy the AMD Athlon II X3 440, which is a triple-core processor on the same socket. A dollar more for a whole extra processor? Sounds like a good deal!
Co processor(8087 for 8086,80287 for 80286 etc) is also known as Math processor.It is a dedicated processor for performing arithmetic operations.It has very strong instruction set for numerical operations,faster than 8086 by 4 times.Normally 8086 and other microprocessors will take a lot of time to perform numerical operations and so in multiprocessor mode 8087 will work together with 8086 to solve numerical pronblems.
The programmer can write a program with 8086 instructions and 8087 instructions together and so the speed will be improved.
What is the difference between AMD and Intel processors?
Here are some very simple things that are different between them:
- INTEL processors: Intel was the first major brand for desktop CPUs, they survived a lot of competitors. The CPUs they manufacture are always a bit more expensive than AMDs. Because of their market shares, Intel was able to force some "gadgets" onto the market. Until 2002, all CPUs were classified by the speed (for example 2GHz - so 2000MHz). Intel lost some influence on the desktops CPU market because of AMDs techniques - they used not only pure speed but a more specific command kernel. By that the CPUs (i.E. AMD Athlon XP) were slower, but provided the same results as a faster Intel CPU (remember? AMD at 1.666GHz was the same as a INTEL on 1,8GHz). Intel provides most of the "normal" server CPUs today. Private users often choose AMDs for their machines to save costs. Intel supports the classification by the pure speed of a CPU no more. The introduced new numbers for the CPUs which represent the speed, the advanced features, the cache etc. for a certain CPU (and the best for them: you cannot compare them to AMD any longer as easily as it was before ...)
- AMD: AMD concentrated on the PC and consumer market and cut the costs for their CPUs in order to be more competitive. Nowadays the AMD CPUs are hotter than Intel CPUs, therefore you will need a better cooling and your system will be a bit louder. AMD provides a dual core CPU for PCs longer than Intel and I guess they have more experience with these features.
For gaming systems it is more a question of taste and money than a real difference. Both platforms have their advantages:
- You cannot do anything wrong, as long as you try to get a CPU with a big cache (1mb at least! - so NO CELERON or SEMPRON) and the rest is a question of RAM and the used video card.
- Both chips are very similar, but due to marketing, they seem very very different from each other. The primary "marketing" difference is the way they claim their speeds.
- The Intel chipsets (Pentium, celeron) use MHz as a speed factor. IE "This Pentium 4 chip runs at 3000 MHz" (IE a Pentium 4 3.0).
- The AMD chipsets do not use a MegaHertz rating for speed because they believe doing so would make their chips seem slower than their Intel counterparts. This is due to the difference in instruction set handling that AMD uses, and is too technical to really get into here. Instead you may see an AthlonXP 1600, etc. Apply the following formula to determine the "Pentium" equivalent MHz speed. MHz = (XP rating/1.5) + (500/1.5) For example, with an Athlon 1600, the math would break down like this: MHz = (1600/1.5) + (500/1.5) MHz = (1066.66) + (333.33) MHz = 1399.99 Which would be equivalent to the last incarnation of the Pentium 3 (at 1400 MHz).
- Because Intel has enjoyed longer commercial success than AMD, you can typically find comparable AMD chips for half the cost. This has to do with brand loyalty and advertising costs as well as the types of memory used in both chips. Intel uses more expensive RDR RAM while the AMD chips use DDR RAM. That said, the RDR RAM is faster (533 MHz versus the 333 MHz of the DDR RAM) and helps to soften the blow of the cost of the chips to the consumer.
Another user said:
- The main difference between AMD and Intel processors are that AMD processors have a 10 step execution process which doesn't allow as fast of a clock but AMD's counter that by being able to do more operations per clock cycle. Intels on the other hand have a 20 step execution process which allows much higher clock speeds but they have fewer operations per clock. That's why a 2.08 Ghz AMD barton can perform at levels like a 2.8 GHz Pentium 4. Another difference between the processors are the sockets they use. AMD's generally use Socket A (462 pins) while Intel generally uses Socket 478 (478 pins). Other differences include supported chip sets, AMD motherboards generally use SIS, VIA, or N force chip sets while Intel motherboards use Intel, SIS, and most recently ATI chip sets. AMD is a favorite for over clockers because with minor modifications the FSB multiplier can be unlocked while Intel multipliers cannot be unlocked (Not to say that AMD is used exclusively by over clockers, because it is not, but this ability to be unlocked is a plus). Also as of now Intel processors have the largest L3 cache at 2mb while the largest for AMD is 1mb.
Intel processors have a more diverse library of CPUs than AMD, and have higher-end models too, they also have "hyperthreading" which theoretically doubles the amount of cores in your CPU.
