i think you add more info about it.
Manu, thought core2quad would ve a higher frequency... but instad it has jus 2.33... seems low isn't it?? compared to pentiums 3 n higher things....
@picks_stock_market
We will update more info as soon we get it.
@Vadi
yeah it seems low but its faster than that. Because it has more cores, its theoratically 4 x 2.33. Higher frequencies require much more power so thats why they have started lowering the frequencies but increasing the cores. Its more power efficient this way.
