  2. Clock rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_rate

    Further, a "cumulative clock rate" measure is sometimes assumed by taking the total cores and multiplying by the total clock rate (e.g. a dual-core 2.8 GHz processor running at a cumulative 5.6 GHz). There are many other factors to consider when comparing the performance of CPUs, like the width of the CPU's data bus , the latency of the memory ...

  3. CPU multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_multiplier

    For example, a system with an external clock of 100 MHz and a 36x clock multiplier will have an internal CPU clock of 3.6 GHz. The external address and data buses of the CPU (often collectively termed front side bus (FSB) in PC contexts) also use the external clock as a fundamental timing base; however, they could also employ a (small) multiple ...

    Performance; Max. CPU clock rate: 400 MHz to 6.2 GHz: Cache; L1 cache: Up to 112 KB per P-core 96 KB per E-core or LP E-core: L2 cache: Core and Core 2: Up to 12 MB Nehalem-present: Up to 2 MB per P-core and up to 3 MB per E-core cluster

  5. AMD Turbo Core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Turbo_Core

    AMD Turbo Core a.k.a. AMD Core Performance Boost (CPB) is a dynamic frequency scaling technology implemented by AMD that allows the processor to dynamically adjust and control the processor operating frequency in certain versions of its processors which allows for increased performance when needed while maintaining lower power and thermal parameters during normal operation. [1]

  6. Cycles per instruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycles_per_instruction

    In computer architecture, cycles per instruction (aka clock cycles per instruction, clocks per instruction, or CPI) is one aspect of a processor's performance: the average number of clock cycles per instruction for a program or program fragment. [1] It is the multiplicative inverse of instructions per cycle.

  7. Megahertz myth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megahertz_myth

    This was followed by the introduction of the Core 2 desktop processor in 2006, which was a major change from previous Intel desktop processors, allowing nearly a 50% decrease in processor clock while retaining the same performance. Core 2 had its beginnings in the Pentium M mobile processor, where energy efficiency was more important than raw ...

  8. Multi-core processor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-core_processor

    A multi-core processor (MCP) is a microprocessor on a single integrated circuit (IC) with two or more separate central processing units (CPUs), called cores to emphasize their multiplicity (for example, dual-core or quad-core). Each core reads and executes program instructions, [1] specifically ordinary CPU instructions (such as add, move data ...

  9. RDNA 3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDNA_3

    RDNA 3 was designed to support high clock speeds. On RDNA 3, clock speeds have been decoupled with the front end operating at a 2.5 GHz frequency while the shaders operate at 2.3 GHz. The shaders operating at a lower clock speed gives up to 25% power savings according to AMD and RDNA 3's shader clock speed is still 15% faster than RDNA 2. [19]
