Latest: Triple-core laptop processors



Untrained laptop buyers usually does not look at the specs but rather will look at the brandnames of laptop. Such brand names may include toshiba, dell, acer and others.

But, when you are asked whether to buy a dual-core or quad-core laptop, what would you choose?
When you opt for a dual-core notebook, you might think that you’re scrimping up on money and thus compromising system performance while
going for a quad-core laptop will really boost your image, but will also burn a hole through your wallet.
Quad core gives you a power-hungry device whose computing power that is seldom maximized because you’d mainly use it for typing documents, writing a blog and playing facebook games like fishville and farmville.
.
AMD has a solution, triple-core processors for laptops:
AMD’s offering would be the first triple-core processors available for laptops. AMD has been offering triple-core processors for desktops and offers only dual-core chips for laptops. Intel offers dual-core and quad-core chips for its laptops and desktops.
Laptops with dual-core processors offer good performance, but adding an extra core helps boost application performance, Grim said. For example, the third core can take on resource-heavy tasks like antivirus scanning while freeing up the other two cores. The chip could also be a power-efficient option to Intel’s quad-core chips, which usually go into power-hungry enthusiast systems.
AMD is also offering triple-core processors to PC makers as a way to differentiate from the usual dual-and quad-core offerings, Grim said.
It does make sense and it seems that the third core would do just what AMD says it would and we’ll end up feeling that the laptop we bought is just right for our budget and needs. This really fits what you really wanted. I really don’t just use my laptop to go online, or do some word processing on it, I also do some graphics editing and even some video editing. While I feel that dual-core it enough. I am now faced with wanting this new technology.

Test Taking Strategies for Fresh Graduates

Test Taking Strategies for Fresh Graduates. How to take an occupational test? How to prepare for tests? How to answer employee questions? Tips for taking tests! These are some of the reverberating excerpts I hear a lot of times from fresh graduates of many universities. I wish to shed some light into this matter by sharing experiences I had with several multinational companies that I applied and worked for. Today, I will be speaking and sharing the wonderful sets of learning I gained to 200 graduating students of  University of Iloilo-PHINMA Education Network. I wish to be of help to these students by exposing to them the common tests that employers give, how to prepare for an examination, how to prepare for the big battle (of passing the test of the student's company of choice). This is my street-wise approach that I use and for many years have led me to join big companies. If you wish to grab a copy of this training, please leave your e-mail address by posting under the c...
