|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Much lower typical power consumption | 12.84W | vs | 44.69W | 3.5x lower typical power consumption | |||
| Much lower annual commercial energy cost | 13.84 $/year | vs | 48.18 $/year | 3.5x lower annual commercial energy cost | |||
| Much lower annual home energy cost | 3.81 $/year | vs | 13.25 $/year | 3.5x lower annual home energy cost | |||
| |||||||
| Much newer manufacturing process | 22 nm | vs | 180 nm | A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor | |||
| Much higher clock speed | 2.9 GHz | vs | 0.6 GHz | More than 4.8x higher clock speed | |||
| Much 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 built-in GPU | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; A separate graphics adapter is not required | |||
| More advanced architecture | x86-64 | vs | x86 | A 64-bit architecture allows more RAM to be installed and accessed by the processor | |||
| More cores | 2 | vs | 1 | Twice as many cores; run more applications at once | |||
| More threads | 2 | vs | 1 | Twice as many threads | |||
| Supports dynamic frequency scaling | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; Allows for maximum performance when needed, while conserving power and minimizing heat production when not needed | |||
| Has a NX bit | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; Prevents a common class of security exploits | |||
| Has virtualization support | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; Boosts performance of virtual machines | |||
| Much more l2 cache per core | 0.5 MB/core | vs | 0.25 MB/core | 2x more l2 cache per core | |||
| Newer | Jan, 2013 | vs | Oct, 1999 | Release date over 13 years later | |||
