Differences What are the advantages of each
| |||||||
Much more l2 cache | 4 MB | vs | 0.5 MB | 8x more l2 cache; more data can be stored in the l2 cache for quick access later | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Is unlocked | Yes | vs | No | Somewhat common; An unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking | |||
Much more l2 cache per core | 2 MB/core | vs | 0.25 MB/core | 8x more l2 cache per core | |||
Supports more CPUs in SMP configuration | 2 | vs | 1 | Twice as many CPUs in SMP configuration | |||
| |||||||
Much newer manufacturing process | 22 nm | vs | 65 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 | |||
Higher clock speed | 3.3 GHz | vs | 2.83 GHz | More than 15% higher clock speed | |||
Much lower typical power consumption | 44.69W | vs | 77.19W | More than 40% lower typical power consumption | |||
Better overclocked clock speed (Air) | 3.43 GHz | vs | 2.83 GHz | More than 20% better overclocked clock speed (Air) | |||
Much lower annual home energy cost | 13.25 $/year | vs | 22.89 $/year | More than 40% lower annual home energy cost | |||
Much lower annual commercial energy cost | 48.18 $/year | vs | 83.22 $/year | More than 40% lower annual commercial energy cost | |||
Better overclocked clock speed (Water) | 3.46 GHz | vs | 2.83 GHz | More than 20% better overclocked clock speed (Water) |
