I've searched the FAQs and the forum, but haven't found an explanation regarding dual core processors. My current machine has an Intel Pentium Dual Processor E2180 @ 2Ghz. I have a few questions. One, does that mean it's as fast as a single core processor running at 4Ghz? Which would be faster, my dual core processor, or two single cores running on a motherboard with two cpu sockets? How can you tell if you have a 32 bit processor or a 64 bit processor? Does Intel have this posted on thier website? Thanks.
