6GB!. I seriously need to invest in a new PC, cause photoshop sucks it like a b^&$h when you got Mcafee running on 512MB! lolol
wrong...dual core=stripped down version of core2duo. It is ALSO used to refer to processors with 2 cores Only Intel and AMD for the consumer market... I've already explained this earlier...please go through my other posts in this topic They are already there....but used in servers I guess I've said what you said in the first para earlier too. Let me get this clear, I used to have a celeron 1.7 GHz a few months back, When i used to run Opera, Firefox, YIM, Pidgin etc on it, it used to lag. Now I have a dual core 2GHZ, and all those applications along with more run like a breeze. The difference in not slight, dual cores gives 10 times more performance
Ram was 512MB Processor, motherboard, ram, hdd processor- Celeron->dual core ram- SD-DDR2 Hdd- 80GB(IDE)->500GB(SATA)
Celeron is better for low budget, I first celeron family desktop 1.7 Ghz. then 2.4 ghz, they all was good, if your budget you can purchase Dual Core.. thanks
Thanks for the reply crownrahul , yea sure I have a Dual Core in mind 500 GB, that's sweet !!!! actually that might be the difference, you had a 80 gb IDE and a 512 mb ram and then you upgraded to a 500 GB SATA. You gonna see a speed difference for sure
Thanks... I guess I told this earlier... Bigger Hdds, floppy drives etc etc, slow down the speed and not increase them
celerons are basically dual cores with a processor disabled and underclocked and other features disabled dual cores ftw?
LOL Seriously....made me laugh like hell I will believe your theory if you explain this to me: Why would Intel develop a dual core, disable one of the cores, underclock it, disable other advanced features and then sell for less than half the price? And then remove the limitations and release it after AMD released it's dual core? Note to others: Don't believe Meth_'s theory, He's seriously misinformed No offence mate but it simply doesn't make any sense
the stripped down version is either core duo or core solo (now rebranded as celeron processors) dual core just means two cores
Because not every processor made is upto the "standards" for a dual core processor (it's a very hard process getting them correct) and most of the time there's just a fault with ONE core, so they disable ONE core and everything faulty with it and rebrand the processor as a celeron see: AMD triple core processors
I won't get into an argument... dual core is the stripped down version or core2duo Celeron is a stripped down version of PIII
http://gizmodo.com/373185/amd-phenom-x3-triple-core-processors-are-crippled-quad-cores-in-disguise AMD's example of this process and I'm sure you can find an article about the new celerons being crippled core 2 duos :roll:
find me a processor branded "dual core" where the reference "dual core" isn't telling people that there's more than one core there's pentium #/pro ect pentium D (which you might be confusing for "dual core") core 2 duo core duo core solo celeron
Celeron's are crippled core2duos? DUDE SERIOUSLY!!!! Celeron's are stripepd down PIII.... Hold on, I'll try to find you a article on some reputed website so that you can clear your facts *starts googling http://www.intel.com/Consumer/Learn...ore-detail.htm?iid=learn_proc+pentium_desktop http://www.intel.com/Consumer/Learn/Desktop/core2duo-detail.htm?iid=learn_proc+c2d_desktop not confusing.... pentium D=2 prescott processors dual core is different http://img356.imageshack.us/img356/9797/scrshtms2.jpg My cousion has a Pentium D and it says Pentium D in his system properties and not Pentium Dual-core. http://www.chotocheeta.com/2007/09/...-2-duo-vs-intel-dual-core-vs-intel-pentium-d/ http://au.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080528055314AAXxOab And yea, even if this doesn't satisfy you, there's nothing more I can do
we're not living in 2004 anymore celerons have advanced with every other processor Intel has made and advancement with a crippled P3....? ....................................? .........................................................................? :Z
The advanced version is called Celeron D and celeron dual-core and not Celeron. And here we are discussing about Celerons EDIT: Here's another set of links to satisfy you Intel® Celeron® Processor http://www.intel.com/products/processor/celeron/index.htm Intel® Celeron® D Processor http://www.intel.com/products/processor/celeron_D/index.htm Intel® Celeron® Dual-Core Processor http://www.intel.com/products/processor/Celerondualcore/index.htm Intel® Pentium® D Processor http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/processors/pentiumd/pentiumd-overview.htm Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core Processor http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_dual-core/index.htm Intel® Core™2 Duo Processors http://www.intel.com/products/processor/core2duo/index.htm?iid=prod_desktopcore+body_core2duo
aye, I thought you meant a while new brand named "Intel dual core", not Pentium dual core... in that case yeah you're right it's still Intel "pentium" dual core
