Re: Quad Core or Dual Core



Currently I am running a Pentium Dual Core at 3 GHz. Will a 2.3 GHz
Core 2 be faster?

Nope.
See

What you mean?

Core2 2.33Ghz = 1.21s
Pentium D930 3Ghz = 2.13s

A 2.33Ghz Core2 is clearly faster than Pentium4 3Ghz.

A Core2 2.93Ghz is even twice as fast as a Pentium 4 3Ghz, with only 1.06s.
