All else being as equal as possible to make a faie comparison - is a 3GHz
single core processor faster or slower than a dual core operating at a typical
2.0 GHz speed?
It seems to me that without an OS and software written to support the dual core
that there will be little if any benefit to a dual core processor unless each
core operates at the same (or near same) speed as the single core being
compared to.
Ditto with 64-bit processors.
Can someone here put all this 32/64-bit single/dual/triple/quad-core
gobbledy-gook into a perspective that makes sense to me (and everyone else
here)?
Thanks,
Don
