Is AMD athlon 64 x2 better than Intel Core 2 Duo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There's really no way to tell which manufacturer has the better processors. It all depends on the speed. If you find two processors that are both the same speed, I guarantee that AMD will be 100-150 dollars less but matched quality. Some Intel dual cores are faster than AMD but are much more expensive.

Which is better 2.0 Ghz or 2.2 Ghz AMD Athlon processor?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The 2.2Ghz and 2.4Ghz are numbers that refer to the speed of the computer's internal clock.

This means, higher the value, the faster your computer will run. This means, 2.4Ghz will run faster than 2.2Ghz.

However, keep in mind a few things before you decide on buying a processor. The difference in speed between a 2.2 and 2.4Ghz is very minimal. It is not worth the extra money (about $50 extra).

As far as daily functioning and even gaming goes, 2.2Ghz should be more than enough.

Remember, the speed of your computer is not decided by the processor alone.

When a new computing technology is invented by Intel or AMD why must their processors still support the older and less efficient technologies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

People DO want to upgrade, and it's much easier to upgrade from current technology, piece by piece. You also have to consider that new firmware must be tested thoroughly for a new processor, and often an OS or some software will not install on hardware it won't recognize, in case someone wants to install last year's software.

Is an AMD Sempron processor fast?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Whenever you ask if something is fast, you must always have a point of reference. Is a bicycle fast? Is a Ferrari fast? Is the Concorde jet fast? Is light fast?

Is an AMD processor the fastest type of processor available? No.

Is an AMD processor faster than an Intel processor of the same price? Probably.

Is an AMD 5x86 faster than an Intel Xeon? Heck, no!

Is an AMD Phenom faster than a Pentium 4? Yes.

Is Intel better than an amd processor?

Asked by Wiki User

It depends, but usually Intel is better. Older AMD processors (compared against the early Pentium 4) were much faster, however.

Is a amd athlon TM x2 dual-core QL-64 2.10 ghz good?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

this is a faily new processor and is very fast and is excellent. i recommend it! yes it is a good buy and in many cases, the laptops it is in is very good value for money as it is quite cheap to buy despite its high quality and durability.

WARNING: this CPU can run quite hot Low45°C High 78°C (Core Temp 0.99.6 - CPU monitoring program)

So it is advisable to try before you buy, make sure the laptop has adequate cooling, otherwise your wrists will get quite hot.

for additional info refer to:-

Why does your computer get slow page loads?

User Avatar

Asked by DaveDinRI

It could be because the hard drive is fragmented and has a harder time accessing information on it. Run a defrag. To do this click Start>Accessories>System Tool> Disk Defragmenter. Also run a disk clean up which can be found in the same folder.

It also could be a virus or a bunch of spy ware or your internet could be throttled or slowed at the moment for what ever reason.

I use Auslogics Disk Defrag along with Advanced System Care : free edition and I never have a single problem with my computer.

Is a amd phenom ii quad core good?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is a good processors. You will have to have a good graphics card to run today games. This processor is not the best so you might find that games will run a bit slow.

I have the hexacore AMD x6 1035T (2.6GHz) and a fairly pathetic graphics card (1.5GB Nvidia GeForce GT230) (don't get confused by the large amount of video RAM, the rest of the card is pathetic) and I can play Mass Effect 2, NFS Hot Pursuit, GTA4 etc. comfortably (not the best graphics settings for some of the games, but still pretty darn good).

However, if this processor you mention is in a laptop, beware. Unless it is a laptop made for gaming, it is unlikely that it will have a good graphics chip for gaming. Intel integrated graphics are generally useless (portal 2 runs fine, but GTA4 is unplayable) (unlikely that you would have Intel graphics as it's an AMD processor). Read some reviews on the graphics card/chip that comes with your PC, but if it's a desktop PC, you could probably buy a better graphics card if needs be.

But yeah, a quad core 2.2GHz processor is definitely above the minimum requirements for most, if not all, current PC games.

Can amd processor change with Intel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. While at one time, long long ago, AMD and Intel processors could be used on the same board with the same chipset, this hasn't been true since the Pentium II was introduced. Nowadays, the processors use very different sockets and chipsets, and there's no way to interchange them.

Is AMD E2-1800 a good processor?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes i have a AMD A6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The AMD E2-1800 (codename Zacate) is a dual core processor for small notebooks and netbooks. It offers a relatively powerful integrated graphics card and a single channel DDR3-1333 memory controller. Compared to the older E-450, the E2-1800 offers only slightly higher CPU (50 MHz) and GPU (20-80 MHz) clock rates.

Inside the E2-1800 two Bobcat cores can access 512KB level 2 cache per core. In comparison to the Atom processors, the Bobcat architecture uses an "out-of-order" execution and is therefore faster at the same clock speed. However, the performance is far worse than similar clocked Penryn (Celeron) or Danube (Athlon II) cores. On average the cpu performance of the E-450 lies a bit beyond a Celeron SU2300 at 1.2 GHz or a Athlon II Neo K325 at 1.3 GHz.

What is better AMD graphic or Intel?

User Avatar

Asked by VladimirGonzalezGoncharov

It depends on what you want to do. For gaming an Intel will work better as of 1/1/14, most games only use 4 core technology. Intel benefits from this because it has only 4 cores.

For video editing I'd go AMD, it runs a bit hot, but a third party cooling solution should do the trick, lots of programs take advantage of 8 cores, it's also good for server hosting, but Xeons are better for hosting servers.

Overall I'd go AMD for overall value, but if money isn't a problem go Intel.

10 good netiquette principles rules?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

1. Do not use all caps unless you're EMPHASIZING something. ALL CAPS ARE HARDER TO READ AND IS EQUIVALENT TO YELLING.

2. If you are experiencing high emotion, especially negative, and your reputation is on the line, like online school or job relate or something where the readers know you personally , don't submit your comment or response until you chill out. If you don't wait there is a good possibility you'll regret it later.

That's all I can think of right now :)

What is the difference between AMD and Pentium processors?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both processors are very reliable but the main difference is with performance. I currently have 2 computers with Intel Pentium and 2 with AMD. The Intel Pentium are more geared to the buisness side of the computer world and the AMD are much better for gaming applications, even though they do a fine job on the buisness side as well. It really comes down to one's preference and the type of applications the computer will be running.

Many computer parts hardware dealers will sell this product although it is currently being phased out of production. Newegg is a site that still carries this from time to time.
