Single core vs. Dual core

[BoEinG_747]

Single core
~1.8 Ghz
~80 GB
~512 MB DDR MEM
~built in bluetooth


DUAL core
~1.6 Ghz
~100 GB
~1024 MB DDR Mem
~w/o bluetooth (but free dongle)

same brand (Compaq),both with free bag

difference is Price .Dual core is higher * around 4K

so which do you prefer?

TIA

Depends on the application you will be running. Multi-threaded apps benefit more on duallies. But heck, at Php4K price diff, go for dual core.

[nugundam93]

dual core na...or the core 2 duo pa if suddenly budget allows.

stuff loads faster on a dual core running at a comparably lower GHz rating that a single core that has faster GHz rating.

[ILuvDetailing]

Core Duo ka nalang, +20 Gig HD, + 512MB RAM, + Extra processor so to speak ( ) for only 4K its a bargain.

*sir Boeing:

how much is that?

I might be able to help you :D

[BlueBimmer]

kung makahintay ka, darating na quad core! pero tagal pa ata

[roninblade]

go dual core

Medyo malapit na rin Kentsfield. Pero IMO, medyo overkill na yun for lappies.

*BoEinG_747: anong dual core ba yan? Core Duo (Yonah) o Core 2 Duo (Merom)?

Anyways, sa mems pa lang, panalo ka na doon sa pangalawa * Php4K price increase.

download ka ng mp3 while watching a video at nag-run ng excel macro at the same time? dual core ka na. this is the stuff it was meant for.

[warp]

Core Duo na or better yet Core2 Duo.

[alwayz_yummy]

sorry, di ako makahabol, pag dual core, what does that mean? 2 processor? un ata bago ngayon,e core-duo

HT na ba? specific board bin ba kailangan?

[Kikkomann]

HT na ba? specific board bin ba kailangan?

Yung ibang older models ng dualcore (e.g. PD805), AFAIK ay walang HT.

And yes, may specific na board na kailangan for Pentium D, Core Duo, and Core 2 Duo.

Pentium D - 915 and above chipsets; socket 775
Core 2 Duo - 965 & 975; socket 775

Di ko po alam kung pangha-hijack ito. Hingi na rin ako tulong sa inyo para sa gamit ng mga graphic designers ko at mga managers... nanghihingi sila sa akin ng Apple Machines (MacPro, MacBook Pro, MacBook, Mac Minia, etc). Okay ba talaga ang Core Duo sa Apple? Meron kasing mga reviews na nakita ako na mas reliable daw yong mga dating processors nila kaysa sa ngayon. Wala po akong alam sa ganito kaya medyo nagtatanong, malaki kasi masyadong investment pag Apple lahat ang ginamit nila. TIA

OK yung duallies sa Mac, EXCEPT for their MacBooks (overheating issues). Reliability? Maybe, since they received a ton of raving reviews for their Motorola procies. Speed? Still Intel's crown, AFAIK.

OT na bossing... create ka na lang ng new thread for this.

sorry po sa thread starter

ok..di ko pala magagamit sa asus p4s8x-x ko..hehe...basta po ba alin dyan sa sinabi mo pang chipset/socket?

[badkuk]

if you tend to multitask -- e.g. surf the web, watch movies, TV surf, etc. -- dual core may make sense.


better get a good power supply though; suspetsa namin ung ps ang nakasisira ng dual core mobos namin dito sa office.

[bardigones]

yes choose Core Duo or Core 2 Duo
