Differences What are the advantages of each
| |||||||
Much newer manufacturing process | 14 nm | vs | 180 nm | A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Much higher clock speed | 4 GHz | vs | 1.33 GHz | More than 3x higher clock speed | |||
Significantly more l2 cache | 1 MB | vs | 0.25 MB | 4x more l2 cache; more data can be stored in the l2 cache for quick access later | |||
Has a NX bit | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; Prevents a common class of security exploits | |||
Much better overclocked clock speed (Air) | 4.61 GHz | vs | 1.64 GHz | More than 2.8x better overclocked clock speed (Air) | |||
More threads | 8 | vs | 1 | 7 more threads | |||
More cores | 4 | vs | 1 | 3 more cores; run more applications at once | |||
Much better overclocked clock speed (Water) | 4.77 GHz | vs | 1.33 GHz | More than 3.5x better overclocked clock speed (Water) | |||
