    Default What are those prossesors speed?

    I want to upgrade and I look for
    prossesor the problem is I don't understand their speed nowdays
    Intel Dual Core E2180 2GHz / 800MHz / 1MB
    and
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16GHz / 1333MHz / 6MB
    What are their speed ?
    Shall i multiply GHz on 2 ?
    Fitz Salnarville, Duke William's favourite knyghte,
    To noble Edelwarde his life dyd yielde;
    Withe hys tylte launce hee stroke with thilk a myghte,
    The Norman's bowels steemde upon the feeld.
    Old Salnarville beheld hys son lie ded, 235
    Against Erie Edelward his bowe-strynge drewe;
    But Harold at one blowe made tweine his head;
    He dy'd before the poignant arrowe flew.
    So was the hope of all the issue gone,
    And in one battle fell the sire and son
    .

    The GHz refers is how much information a processor can handle. The second one you listed is the FSB, I believe that is how much information that it can send throughout the Motherboard. Last one is the L2 cache, and I do not really have a clue as to what it is because I don't care.

    Dual core means there are "two processors" on one physical die. So multiplying by two will not mean anything.


    Now I just need someone like Sim or Pent to over correct me.

    Laugh all you want, but it's true.

    One time I said that Linux was the worst operating system for gaming, and he comes back at me about some server OS being the worse....

    I think your going about it the wrong way, rather then look at the speed your should look at what preformacne benefit that CPU is going to give you. Check out this comparison chart, I couldn't find your CPU so I choose the one nearest to it.Link.

    For the record the E8500 is 58% faster in terms of pure clockrate (2Ghz vs 3.16Ghz).
