Core 2 duo and Dual Core

What is the difference nila?

"Intel's really to blame here for a horrific naming convention. Any half-conscious marketing executive would commit suicide before putting both a numeral 2 and the word "duo" in the name of a product, particularly when there's also a product with "solo" in the name. But let's put that aside and look at the specs of each.

Core Duo is Intel's first dual-core CPU. It's a whole new architecture for Microsoft, using two cores on a single die, which, put simply, gives you two chips in one package. Running at lower speeds than the old Pentium line, the Core Duo conserves substantial power vs. ratcheting up clock speed while offering what was, at the time, record-breaking performance.

Now there's Core 2 Duo. In many ways Core 2 is the same as Core: The chips are built using the same production process and fit in the same sockets as Core Duo chips. Putting aside Core 2 Extreme (a fancy version of the Core 2 Duo), you won't see many spec changes: Both chips have the same frontside bus speed of 667MHz, but Core 2 Duo is now available at somewhat faster clock speeds (as I write this, 2.67GHz chips are available). The frontside bus communicates between the CPU and RAM (and other components), and it's a notorious performance bottleneck for computers. The Core 2 also has the same L2 cache that the Core has. However, there are architecture changes to the silicon that give the Core 2 more sophisticated processing abilities. Both chips exist in desktop and laptop versions."

^^ bro, karaan namn ni nga blog hehehe

core line of processors kay laptop only, 32-bit, and derived from pentium M. while core2 kay laptop & desktop, 64-bit, and a new microarchitecture.

dual core contains 2 physical cores on a single die. so ang ang core2 duo(C2D) is a dual core processor.

maybe imong pasabot sa dual core kay kanang gibrand as pentium dual core (PDC). same ranag microarchitecture ang C2D ug PDC, but the main difference jud ang ang L2 cache size. C2D is marketed for high-end/premium/mainstream, while PDC for mainstream/budget, nya ang celeron dual core (CDC) for budget/low-end market.

ahhh ingana diay na xa bro

[dexlimp]

L2 cache ra ang difference ana nla bro..same manufacturing process ra na cla ug same die..

[chinody]

l2 cache rajud diff ani nila.

[finepix]

how about i7 or i5 guys?

[markee5]

dba naa naman sad l2 cache ang dual core?

lagi bro... maoy una naku nautingkay sa ako inbox... karaan

dba naa naman sad l2 cache ang dual core?

tanan man procesrs, dual, quad or single core naay L2 jud
