We will show you the difference it makes between processors Intel dual-core and quad-core at the time of sale to a customer. That is the reasoning made for a customer (business that is) is decided by one or another model for their new teams. Let’s see what Intel has to decide for one another.
Intel claims that a dual-core processor is best for:
1. Maximize productivity and multitasking business users 2. IT with several applications running in the background 3. Demanding office applications and collaboration software.
The explanation given to justify an Intel quad-core processor is also based on three points:
1. Advanced enterprise applications and rendering 3D CAD design 2. Complex calculations and programs: Monte Carlo Black-Scholes 3. Encoding HD video
In comparison tests showing a dual-core processor E8600 3.33 GHz compared to 2.67 GHz Q9400 (quad core) since both are about the same price, hovering around the 220 . In the SYS mark 2007 test software, dual-core performance shows a 15% higher than the Q9400 processor (mainly because the speed difference is not optimized for the use of more than two cores).
However, in more demanding applications of computing power as tables with macros Excel 2007 or simulation with the Monte Carlo program quad-core processor shows its favorable position by paying 21% more than the dual-core processor.
Therefore and according to the purpose for which it is to be targeted by the team in question not always four is better than two, at least equal price.
The chip giant has announced a new series of ultra low voltage processors that are intended to be included in ultra-thin notebook, but not all of these laptops will be valid for such designs.
At Ars Technica explains how for example the MacBook Air will not be one of the candidates for the integration of those processors which do not provide more power than the current Intel Core 2 Duo 1.86 or 2.13 GHz and above all do not offer characteristics of power consumption are particularly important.
However, the announcement is significant because it returns to renew the range of 32-nanometer micro is becoming a benchmark for the field of ultra-thin notebooks.
The requirements of those teams are not as demanding as the MacBook Air in which specifications and meet other needs, and who will benefit from greater performance and consumption can increase battery life by 15%.

*This is the right blog for anyone who wants to find out about this topic. You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a topic thats been written about for years. Great stuff, just great!
