Intel® Multi-Core Technology

Multi-core processors are single chips that contain two or more distinct processors or execution cores in the same integrated circuit. While independent, their construction makes for interdependent task-sharing.



What does that mean for you?
Increasingly, software is being developed that sends multiple instructions which need to be processed simultaneously.Tens of thousands of times a second—especially while running intensive programs like high-definition video rendering or engineering programs—software is making decisions. Here's how Intel® processors do it better.
Intel® Dual-Core Technology


Intel® Core™2 Duo processors incorporate two processor execution cores in a single processor package that delivers—with appropriate software—a fully parallel execution of multiple software threads. This allows each core to run at a lower frequency, dividing the power normally given to a single core.The result for you is not just faster processing. It's that, well, your photo is ready. While you IM'd. And printed off an architectural schematic. So keep going. The Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor is ready.

Intel® Quad-Core Technology


Quad-core technology is a single processor that includes four processor cores. Think of them as four simultaneously hard-working brains that can work separately or together on one large task, which produces faster, more efficient results for you.
