What is the difference between these two processors. I'm confused with the clock speed. They are both Dual-Core but 4800+ is 2.4GHz and D 940 is 3.6GHz os something? It is either for gaming and working with programs...

they're with regard to an identical in overall performance ; yet that's a not hardship-free descision for you to make in simple terms know that with the DELL it rather is going to in basic terms take a optimal of 1GB dimm stick according to slot (4 obtainable) and the HP will take 2GB dimm sticks interior the memory slots the place in basic terms 2 are necessary for a 32bit gadget. The HP would be much less puzzling to purchase aftermarket aspects for and that they are extra leaniant approximately guarantee themes. DELL will want a qualified tech to place on your image card and reseal the pc. HP you may put in your followers and intensely own photos card. All that pronounced i could purchase the HP with the 940 3.2GHz interior. despite the fact that the X2 4800+ is an AM2 Socket and could be upgraded to all of the hot! AMD 940 pin Phenom X3 and X4 processors. Bonus kudos is going to HP.

4800+ is a lot better in performance than the pentium D. but it is also more expansive. it runs at 2.4ghz but it is faster than a 3.6ghz because it does more calculations per mhz/ghz than the pentium.

Gaming/graphics go with AMD
Business and multitasking go with Intel
