CPU development won't likely neglect single-core performance any time soon and we'll continue to see advances in clock speeds and architecture to squeeze even more processing power with each CPU ...

The upcoming Ryzen 7000-series processors, based on the exciting new Zen 4 architecture, are not expected to use varying core architectures on a single chip—they’ll likely stick to traditional ...

With the Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme, the Core architecture is being applied to mobile (Merom) and desktop (Conroe) processors, which now join last month's Xeon 5100 (Woodcrest) to put basically ...

Even when an application fits on a single core processor, the dual-core system can be exploited to reduce overall energy consumption. As an example, if an application requires a 600 MHz clock speed to ...

Was a dual-core 1.6GHz processor “better” than a 3.2GHz single core processor, and so on. What about Windows? Could it utilize a dual-core processor to its maximum potential.

If I have a computer with a 2.66GHz quad-core processor, will it run my software and games faster than my 3.2GHz single-core Pentium 4? Yes, quad-core CPUs are generally much faster than single ...
