And in the other corner is a laptop with a 2 GHz, six-core processor. But because they each have a different number of cores. In other words, this scenario is not quite an apples-to-apples comparison. Higher GHz means more work can be done, which also translates into higher power consumption.
Even if the core counts are identical. A laptop with a 1. Some processors run at 3 GHz, and some better ones run at a whopping 5 GHz.
If all three have the same number of cores and all else being equal. A side-by-side comparison will easily reveal that a 1. Most high-performance laptops nowadays have faster processors.
In modern processors, the number of cores is more vital to the performance of a CPU than the speed. But extra cores will help it perform fast enough for gaming. While a 1. If you want a gaming laptop, aim for a 2. And consider the number of cores for better performance. Yes, a 3. It performs 3. However, some CPU-dependent games may need even more power. Internal clock speeds don't tell you how fast the processor can communicate with the outside world.
That is defined by its external clock speed or bus speed, which is usually much slower. This means that if you can't get enough data into the processor to keep it busy until it can communicate with the outside world again, it'll sit idle. Clock speeds also don't tell you how long it takes a processor to actually do something. While processors in the same family frequently have the same instruction sets and execution times, it can be hard to compare processors of different brand or different type within the same brand because of this difference.
While one chip running at 5 GHz will usually be faster than two chips running at 2. Generally speaking, if your employees are running multiple programs at once or are running software that is written specifically to take advantage of multi-core processors, a processor with more cores will be slower than a faster processor with fewer cores, but not always.

This program uses information about your computer's performance to make product improvements in the future 2. Version: 2. The Intel processor number is just one of several factors—along with processor brand, system configurations, and system-level benchmarks—to be considered when choosing the right processor for your computing needs. Lithography refers to the semiconductor technology used to manufacture an integrated circuit, and is reported in nanometer nm , indicative of the size of features built on the semiconductor.
Cores is a hardware term that describes the number of independent central processing units in a single computing component die or chip. A Thread, or thread of execution, is a software term for the basic ordered sequence of instructions that can be passed through or processed by a single CPU core.
Frequency is typically measured in gigahertz GHz , or billion cycles per second. Processor Base Frequency describes the rate at which the processor's transistors open and close. The processor base frequency is the operating point where TDP is defined.
CPU Cache is an area of fast memory located on the processor. A bus is a subsystem that transfers data between computer components or between computers. Thermal Design Power TDP represents the average power, in watts, the processor dissipates when operating at Base Frequency with all cores active under an Intel-defined, high-complexity workload. Refer to Datasheet for thermal solution requirements. Configurable TDP-up Frequency is a processor operating mode where the processor behavior and performance is modified by raising TDP and the processor frequency to fixed points.
Configurable TDP-up is a processor operating mode where the processor behavior and performance is modified by raising TDP and the processor frequency to fixed points. The use of Configurable TDP-up is typically executed by the system manufacturer to optimize power and performance.
Configurable TDP-up is the average power, in watts, that the processor dissipates when operating at the Configurable TDP-up frequency under an Intel-defined, high-complexity workload. Configurable TDP-down Frequency is a processor operating mode where the processor behavior and performance is modified by lowering TDP and the processor frequency to fixed points.
Configurable TDP-down is a processor operating mode where the processor behavior and performance is modified by lowering TDP and the processor frequency to fixed points. The use of Configurable TDP-down is typically executed by the system manufacturer to optimize power and performance. Configurable TDP-down is the average power, in watts, that the processor dissipates when operating at the Configurable TDP-down frequency under an Intel-defined, high-complexity workload.
Embedded Options Available indicates products that offer extended purchase availability for intelligent systems and embedded solutions. See your Intel representative for details.
Maximum supported memory speed may be lower when populating multiple DIMMs per channel on products that support multiple memory channels. The number of memory channels refers to the bandwidth operation for real world application. ECC memory is a type of system memory that can detect and correct common kinds of internal data corruption.
