Core 2 Quad vs. Quad Core

[coolboxer1985]

Guys,

Please tel me whether there is any difference between CORE 2 QUAD and QUAD CORE....coz it seem to confuse me....

Please help...

I THINK QUAD CORE IS FASTER THAN CORE 2 QUAD

 

[VSGM]

I THINK QUAD CORE IS FASTER THAN CORE 2 QUAD

i think is the other way around
CORE 2 QUAD is faster than the QUAD CORE

 

[jmc]

CORE 2 QUAD is better

 

[walkernet]

yeah i also yhink that core2quad is faster and better than quad core.

dekema 4 cores thiyenawa neda?
Clock Speed, L2 cache, FSB eken neda performance wenas wenne..

Core 2 Quad is for Intel Desktop Motherboards. Q series processors are Core 2 Quad.

Quad core is used for Intel Xeon based Processors.

i think is the other way around
CORE 2 QUAD is faster than the QUAD CORE

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Virtual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

 

[kudos_utopia]

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Vietual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

yes bro

thanks too..matath oka pataluna

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Virtual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

පැහැදිළි අදහසක්...ස්තූතියි..!

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Virtual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

Thanks for the in4..

 

[coolboxer1985]

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Virtual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

Thanks kolla....ela info tika....niyamai....

So dual core is virtual too...?

 

[egs]

Quad Core means 4 Real cores
Core 2 Quad means 2 Real cores+2 Virtual
So Quad Core is faster than Core 2 Quad

Where did u find that Core 2 Quad has 2 Real cores and 2 Virtual cores ?

Even Intel says Core 2 Quad has 4 Cores. Both Core 2 Quad and Quad Cores are the same. Its the same technical specification. However the word Quad Core is used more in Workstations and Servers using Xeon Processor and Core 2 Quad is used for Desktop based platform.

"Quad Core processors" is the general technical term for processors having 4 processing cores. "Core 2" is a commercial name by intel to mention their multi core processor generation. and Core 2 Quad is the same.. so Core 2 Quad processor from intel is a Quad Core processor...

in the same way, AMD Phenom X4 is a Quad Core processor too. and its commercial name is AMD Phenom instead of Intel Core 2!!

and the latest Quad core processors from intel are Intel i7 processors.

Correct.

Core 2 Quad processors are having 4 Physical Processing Cores!!!!! Core 2 Duo s are having 2 Physical Cores!!!!

When it comes to hyperthreading, doubled number of processing cores will be displayed in the OS, and they are called virtual processors!!

And Hyperthreading is enabled in Core i7 stream. All i7 processors are quad core, and the OS detect 8 Cores, instead of 4.

Pls correct me if im wrong!
