Intel Core 2 Duo Vs Core Duo

[Anusha]

It has combined two processors and their caches and cache controllers onto a single integrated circuit

Well, Pentium D and Dual Core EE CPUs don't have a shared L2 like the Core 2 Duo's have.

I know

Well, they made the first dual core CPUs by combining two Pentium 4s on the same die. Pentium D is not the only dual core made at that time. Pentium D doesn't support Hyperthreading. But Pentium Extreme Edition Dual Core (it's not called Pentium D) has Hyperthreading as well, i.e. it can multiplex a maximum of 4 threads at a time.

Core micro architecture is a revamped architecture used in Pentium M. It was developed from the Pentium 3 architecture. Can't remember its name It's totally different from Netburst, the late Pentium 4, D and EE.

I thik it is YONAH

Deff.... it has to be Yonah or Merom...

But its 2 kinds of processors

but i think they share the same cache controller

Yonah's are not Core 2 Duos, they are Core Duos, which are still based on the old NetBurst architecture introduced with the Pentium 4s.

The Meroms are the Core 2 Duos, which are based on the new Core architecture, which is much better.

I'm talking about the P3 architecture.
Yonah = Core Duo
Dothan = single core version of Yonah
Merom = Mobile C2D..........

No! They are not based on Netburst! OMG! How can someone put a Netburst CPU inside a Lappie?

Hmm... I don't know about that. I don't think so. I mean, the cache controller has to be at least modified to control shared caching, if not rebuild it from the sketch. I think the Core Duo's have a new cache controller and the same thing is improved in the case of Core 2 Duo.

Hey i thought u were talking abt Core Architecture
