Detailed explanation-1: -Clock speeds This means that a dual-core processor can run 14% faster. So, if you have a single-threaded program, the dual-core processor is indeed more efficient. On the flip side, if your program can use all 4 processors, then the quad-core will then be about 70% quicker than the dual-core processor.
Detailed explanation-2: -Basically, having a high clock speed but just one or two cores means your computer will be able to load and interact with a single application quickly. Conversely, having more processor cores, but a slower clock speed means your computer can work with more applications at a time, but each may run a little slower.
Detailed explanation-3: -Overall, a quad-core processor is going to perform faster than a dual-core processor for general computing. Each program you open will work on its own core, so if the tasks are shared, the speeds are better.
Detailed explanation-4: -Again, the Intel Core i7 CPUs outperform their Core i5 counterparts and are much faster than the entry-level Core i3 CPUs. Quad-cores are usually better than dual-cores and hexa-cores better than quad-cores, and so on, but it isn’t always accurate depending on the CPU generation-more on these differences in a moment.
