Difference between Dual Core and Core2 Duo  |
| |
| I am using a laptop which has a Core2 Duo processor. It is the fastest one that I have ever used. I have seen my friends laptop having a dual core processor. I have also used that. My laptop is definitely faster than my friend's. Apart from speed I tried to find the possible difference between Core2 Duo and Dual Core. I didn't got much of the information. Can anybody tell me about the difference between these two as technology point of view. | | core2 duo | | | | |

| | Core 2 duo is simply a generic term for referring to any processor package with 2 physical CPUs in one. The Pentium D, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo and Athlon X2 are the CPUs having the dual cores in one packages. Those names that I mentioned are already the brand names and most of them are from Intel and Athlon X2 is from AMD. Core 2 duo is the second generation Core processor made for desktops and laptops and its predecessor was the Core Duo which was the first generation. | | | | | | |

| | For my own understanding. They are consist of 2 cores but they differ on the clock speed and the cache. But I prefer to use the the Core2 Duo because its the upgrade type of the dual core. It means higher and faster clock speed. Best performance for your computer | | | | | | |

| | There is a very minute differenece. in dual core there are two processor working and in core2 duo there are are two processing elements in a core. core2duo is faster as the communication between those two processing elements takes lesser time than the earlier. which plays a vital role in performance. but we cant see as in general. | | | | | | |

| | Let me explain things straight forwardly. Dual core is cheap and Core2duo is costly. It is because the two cores in dual core share a shared cache memory. But in Core2duo, each cores have a separate cache memory. Which makes the processing much faster. That is why it is costly. If you still have doubt, please let me know. | | | | | | |
