Hi all,
I know someone who is thinking of uupgrading their CPU.
Thing is they are looking at the comparison between a 2.66GHz Intel Celeron and a 2.5GHz Intel i5.
He wants to know why the i5 is better? Surely 2.66 is better than 2.5?
I did try to explain that's not quite how it works and comparisons need to include other variables like FSB etc but I'm not quite sure I'm explaining in terms he understands.
Anyone know a better way of putting it, without sounding condescending?
Cheers,
PC.
