AND keep this in your mind it's actually not correct to sum the clock speeds of all 4 cores cause each core works individually though it's possible to share the load if the application supported Mulitcores as an example most of modern games are multicore optimized so in that case each core avouches for a specific task. so that's how it works.</blockquote>
