Differences What are the advantages of each
| |||||||
Much higher turbo clock speed | 4.4 GHz | vs | 0 GHz | Compared to all cpus, 4.4 GHz turbo clock speed is just OK | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Is unlocked | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; An unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking | |||
Much higher clock speed | 4 GHz | vs | 2.2 GHz | More than 80% higher clock speed | |||
Much newer manufacturing process | 22 nm | vs | 45 nm | A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor | |||
Has a built-in GPU | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; A separate graphics adapter is not required | |||
Much better overclocked clock speed (Air) | 4.63 GHz | vs | 2.21 GHz | More than 2x better overclocked clock speed (Air) | |||
Significantly higher Maximum operating temperature | 74.04 °C | vs | 55 °C | Around 35% higher Maximum operating temperature | |||
More l3 cache per core | 2 MB/core | vs | 1.5 MB/core | Around 35% more l3 cache per core | |||
Newer | Apr, 2014 | vs | Feb, 2011 | Release date over 3 years later | |||
Much better overclocked clock speed (Water) | 4.8 GHz | vs | 2.2 GHz | Around 2.2x better overclocked clock speed (Water) | |||
| |||||||
Much more l2 cache | 4 MB | vs | 1 MB | 4x more l2 cache; more data can be stored in the l2 cache for quick access later | |||
Supports more CPUs in SMP configuration | 4 | vs | 1 | 3 supports more CPUs in SMP configuration | |||
More l3 cache | 12 MB | vs | 8 MB | 50% more l3 cache; more data can be stored in the l3 cache for quick access later | |||
More cores | 8 | vs | 4 | Twice as many cores; run more applications at once | |||
More l2 cache per core | 0.5 MB/core | vs | 0.25 MB/core | 2x more l2 cache per core |
