Intel Core 2 Duo
Hi,
Would Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz Socket processor be a multiple core CPU or dual processor cpu? And would Windows Xp pro support this? |

Hi there,
I'll try to explain as simply as I can, please don't take offence. Core 2, as the name implies, has two cores (in the one CPU). This enables two software threads to be processed in its own execution core. A dual processor is two seperate CPU's (as in a dual Xeon or Opteron system). XP will run fine on a Core 2 Duo. Cheers. |
