About the Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 CPU
The Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 is an end-of-life 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2007 with a suggested retail price of $266. It is part of Intel's Core 2 Quad lineup, which is based on the Kentsfield microarchitecture. The Quad Q6600 is compatible with Intel Socket 775 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 65 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Core 2 Quad Q6600 supports DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core 2 Quad Q6600 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 8 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 0 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Core 2 Quad Q6600 features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.4 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Core 2 Quad Q6600 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the AMD E1-6015 CPU
The AMD E1-6015 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in 2015. It is part of AMD's E1 lineup, which is based on the Beema microarchitecture. The E1-6015 is compatible with AMD Socket FT3 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 28 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon R2 Graphics integrated graphics solution.
Memory and Cache
The E1-6015 supports DDR3 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the E1-6015 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The E1-6015 features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1400.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The E1-6015 includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon R2 Graphics. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.
