![]() Once you take into account faster clock speeds, number of cores, cache sizes, integrated memory controllers, etc. Which means that an Ivy Bridge CPU at the same speed as a Conroe CPU (2006ish) is about 2x as fast per clock cycle, on average. So if we start back at Conroe and work our way to present day Ivy Bridge, that's 5 new generations of processors. Just for a rough order of magnitude I figure an average of 15% increase in performance per clock cycle, per generation (not including clock speed, number of cores, etc.). AmdfangirlSometimes I wish you updated legacy CPUs like the Core 2 Duo or even perhaps the Athlon 64 X2 series, just one or two models so that people upgrading can have an idea how much faster the CPU is in relation to their new purchase.Īgreed, maybe just one dual core and one quad? q9550 and e6850? not that I still own both of those or anything.īut let's do some math.
