Laptop Processor
Processor performance is determined by the following parameters: number of cylinders, core speed, frontside bus speed and amount of cache.
- Number of cylinders. With multiple processor cores does a better job in a multi-mode single-core one. Modern equipment is functioning normally many tasks simultaneously (browser, email client, antivirus, etc. ..), so the dual-core processor provides a dramatic increase in performance compared to single core. From another point of 4 processor cores and is usually more exaggerated because the current software does not allow the use of all four cores to power. In general, the dual-core processor is the best in terms of performance for their money.
- Core speed. The most GHz processor is faster. For simple tasks like surfing, send emails, watch videos, listen to music and the creation of documents that you do not need a powerful processor. 1.7 GHz dual-core enough. If you are going to play, encode video / music, the use of photos or video editors, then you need a faster processor. Depending on the tasks 2.0 GHz dual core or better.
- Front side bus speed. You've probably seen something like 667 MHz FSB in the specifications of the notebook processor. Now you know what this means. The faster FSB is faster data between the processor and memory can be transferred. Faster FSB does not have a major impact on processor performance and the speed of the main engines, but with the same processor speed of 800 MHz FSB perhaps a 5-10% faster than 667 MHz processor FSB. It depends on too many tasks.
- Number of cache. That is the amount of internal memory processor. As the FSB speed does not affect the performance of the processor that much, but still, the more the better. Typical values for modern processors are 512KB - 3MB.
