Intel Duel Core vs Intel i7 Core?
Solid:
Me and my friend were having an argument over this. Which one is better for gaming?
If a Duel Core has 2 cores, than what does an i7 have?
Packer:
i7 eats Dual Core alive. i7 Has 4 Cores and it registers as 8 virtual cores I believe.
Also with that said i7, I have one and coming form a dual core to quad core Supreme Commander 2 doesn't actually lag any more, any and all lag is the game not optimised enough which is pretty insane coming from a game that runs at minus x10 speed.
Miga:
What kind of Intel Dual-Core processor?
Pentium Dual-Core or Core 2 Duo?
...either way, the i7 still wins.
Monocle:
i7 dominates any series of dual core.
i7 = 4 cores
dual core = well... 2 cores
Flying Ace:
I have 2 i7 quad cores
8 real cores( not 8 virtual cores)
plus that 6 gigs of ram is pretty hawt haha I only ever have my ram usage at like 1 or 2%
