[Q] Number of cores vs clock speed - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Hi all,
I've always wondered which would be faster for daily use a Quad Core 1.5 GHz Processor or a Dual Core 1.7 GHz
let's assume they're both Snapdragon 400 processors
Which would be better
Thanks all

in my opinion is dualcore (when its good clocked and at best cortex a9 or a15)(Xperia sp) better than cortex a5 or a7 (moto g)
cause i tested both and i can say : i like the 2core cpu more cause most of all apps use only 2 cores and the xperia sp can bomb a xperia z with out problems and btw xperia sp or better a phone with s400 dc at 1,7ghz have adreno 320 and we know its better than adren305 (the s400 from moto g)

I was talking about Xperia ZR and SP... Lets assume they both have 1 gb ram ( even though ZR has 2 ) which would be faster
Based on AnTuTu benchmarks SP got 21950 while ZR got 20850
So does clock speed really win???

Tegra 2 CPU Questions

We do not yet have overclocking that I have found as of 1/23/11
but
what is the stock CPU Speed clocked at, I know that there is one dual core cpu or two processors and 1ghz but..
is that 2 processors at 500mhz each or 2 processors at 1ghz each?...
is there an app that correctly shows the current cpu frequency?
and lastly this is a G tablet thread but for comparison does anyone know if the Xoom's CPU
will be 2 processors at 500mhz or 2 processors at 1 ghz each?
Thanks
It is a dual "core" CPU, so there is really only one cpu and it runs at 1ghz. This is not 500 + 500 = 1000mhz.....just a processor running at 1ghz but has 2 cores that can process independantly of each other. The Motorola Xoom will be exactly the same.
2 independent 1ghz CPUs would be faster than 1 1ghz dual core CPU as the dual core design uses shared everything between the two cores (access to memory, etc...), though the dual core design does have other advantages.

The tegra 2 processor in are gtabs have 2 processing cores with each clocked at 1 GHz and is the equivalent of having two single core CPUs each clocked at 1GHz. The motorola xoom has the exact same chip set with 1GB of RAM instead of the 512Mb in the gtab.
I may not have been clear in what I meant as to the dual core part and I am sorry...
but now I ask what those advantages are? and how a single core 1.3ghz (largest i have heard of in a phone so far) compares to the dual core 1 ghz?
and then should there be overclocking support in the future and then what should the reachable speeds get up to in theory ie my droid 1 has hit 1.2 without a hitch where do the possibilities lie with the tegra 2
Thanks

[Q] is better a dual core-single channel ram or single core-dual channel ram?

Hello, what i'm asking about is your experience day by day in general performance between two different platforms:
1) Qualcomm-Snapdragon: MSM8255 45 nm ARMv7 1 GHz Scorpion, GPU Adreno 205 RAM, Dual-channel 333 MHz LPDDR2 (Es. Sony Xperia Mini 2011 model)
2) NovaThor: U8500 45 nm ARMv7 1 GHz Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9, GPU ARM Mali 400 (single-core), RAM LP-DDR2 (Es. Sony Xperia U)
Seeing different benchmark in youtube looks like the Snapdragon overcomes generally, but in fact i need more accurate opinion, please share!
Thanks to all!

[Q] Android: Exynos 5250 (A15 dual core) vs Rk3188 (A9 quad core)

I was going to buy a tablet for uni, and as i have some experience with computers i decided to compare the tablets and buy which was best for me, however i realized I'm a complete greenhorn in terms of phone/tablet hardware.
I found that these two processor was the ones i had to pick from:
Samsung Exynos 5250 - A15 Dual core @ 2 Ghz
Has an excellent GPU T-604
Rockwell Rk3188 - A9 Quad core @ 1.8 GHz
Has an decent GPU Mali 400
I know that the Exynos has a MUCH better GPU and has the newer A15 architecture, clocked at higher speed but is a dual core.
But the Rockwell is a quad core but has a older A9 architure and has the worse GPU.
I tried to search for a comparison but came nil because I was comparing between different release date/architecture.
Could you guys people explain to this newbie the advantages and disadvantages of each processor, and which one i should pick?
Which Processor is better? why is it better? Better by how much?
Which processor would be better at Nds emulation? I know android nds emulator support multicore and GPU support
Rk3188 (quad core) vs exynos (better GPU, architechture)
Which one has the lower battery consumption?
Thank you for your time.
at first is it Rockchip RK3188 , not Rockwell .. 2nd, A15 is faster than A9 even A9 is in A9 quad core state, for better compatibility support for apps and games .. take exynos chip but the price is hinger than rockchip RK3188 tablet... battery comsumption are vary depnds actual MAH on the tablet + how the user usage on it's tablet + version ROM that perform
Tablet is not only about processor, build quality, screen, speakers - its a package.
As you did not mention exact models under comparison, it depends on what you look for and budget.
For price/quality top score, you can't go wrong with one of Cube u9GTV (quad) tablets :
Retina, aluminum body, IPS, HDMI, stereo speakers and 9+ hours of battery.
I have one myself, and I used the dual core (old model) for a year, so I know they last well and are robust.
One of issues to consider is that having ADB over USB to Cube tablets is sometimes a mess, so I'm using ADB over IP to debug things, which might be not the best solution for a developer.
Best luck with your choice!

In my experience the amount of cores doesn't really matter. Many apps only use one core. So... I believe the 1.7 GHz dual processor will be faster.
Do correct me if I'm wrong.

I think multiple cores would make more of a difference. Multitasking would be better, and performance-intensive apps would be configured to use multiple cores anyway. For a real case, my friend's Galaxy Grand underclocked to 1 Ghz (dual core) is still better than my E at 1.3 Ghz (single core).

Yeah, OK. Multitasking will definitely be better on a quad core device. It's all about personal use. Theoretically the quad core will win. But you're never sure, until you test yourself.

It depends on the number of cores that an app uses, if it only uses 2 cores, it's obvious that the dual-core with 1.7ghz will work better.
It's like amd vs intel. AMD put in their FX8XXX/FX9XXX 8 cores while Intel puts 4 cores on their i7, but intel's cores run a lot faster so the I7 gets better performance than the FX9XXX
But if the app uses all cores, the performance will be better with the quad-core.
I personally think Clock speed > number of cores.
I got a higher score on AnTuTu ( Xperia SP ) than my friend ( Xperia ZR )

Well, not exactly AMD vs Intel, because Intel's got hyper-threading in their x4 core CPUs, which means two threads per core. However, AMD uses only one thread per core, so an octa-core AMD should work equivalent to an Intel quad.
Note that I said should. Some processors are just better optimized - my laptop's quad core AMD, when overclocked to 2.3 Ghz, performs slightly better than a dual core i5 at 2.4 Ghz (which should have an equal number of cores threads (got confused myself, lol) and a similar clock speed).
In the end, benchmarks on an AOSP ROM are the only thing you can completely trust, in my not-so-humble opinion.
AMD, I use an Intel 3rd gen extreme with turbo boost to 3.4Ghz on my Alienware m17x r4
Hyper-threading is indeed a great technology by intel

[Q] Comparison of processors and GPU

Hi all,
I want to buy a new phone and I am confused regarding the performance and graphical processing unit.
I have 4 combinations on my list. Please help me to choose one on basis of performance.
1. Qualcomm MSM8960T Snapdragon, Dual-core 1.7 GHz Krait, Adreno 320, with 1 GB of RAM [Sony Xperia SP]
2. Qualcomm MSM8930 Snapdragon 400, Dual-core 1.7 GHz Krait, Adreno 305, with 1.5 GB of RAM [Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini]
3. Qualcomm MSM8226 Snapdragon 400, Quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7, Adreno 305, With 1 GB of RAM [Motorola Moto G]
4. Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon, Dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait, Adreno 225, With 2 GB of RAM [Blackberry Z10]
I want to buy a phone that can run android apps, and that's why Z10 is on this list.
I kind of like the interface of BB Z10 and I would like to buy it, but I think the processor and GPU are kind of outdated.
There is one more option. I can wait for BB Z3 to come which features Qualcomm Snapdragon 400, Dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7, Adreno 305, With 1.5 GB of RAM.
Please help me choose one on the basis of performance and light gaming.
Thank you.
moto g
I have a gut feeling that moto g is best because it is newer ,faster ,cheaper
