Hi, I know this might be hard question, but why does Intel 80486 and above CPUs have doubled 32 bit internal data bus? I mean, ALU is still 32bit wide, so what is that extra 32 bit bus for? Thanks.

Bonjour,
Suite à l'Intel Software conférence à laquelle j'étais invité au nom de developpez.com, j'ai rédigé deux articles racontant ce que j'ai pu y apprendre :
- Une interview de James Reinders, le gourou d'Intel sur le sujet
- Un compte rendu plus général de la conférence
N'hésitez pas…

I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop yesterday and it connected to the wireless fine. Then I took it to school, put it on their wired connection, downloaded some stuff, and now the wireless doesn't work.
At first it would detect networks, but not connect. I restarted it and now it can connect, but…

There is no integrated display (it is a barebone box). I connected an external VGA to it.
However xrandr shows two displays:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096…

Hi,
I'm recommending a laptop to a colleague, and the specific laptop he has chosen has the above CPU chips as options. Both chips have 2-cores/4-threads. The i7-620M is a 2.66 GHz (4MB Cache) while the i5-540M is a 2.53 GHz (3MB Cache)....both Arrandale architecture.
He is a .NET programmer working…

On my debian-linux system, with a core i7 920 , each time I resume after the command "pm-suspend" (suspend to RAM), mutlithreading capabilities almost disappear. More specifically, two distinct programs can use 2 distinct cores at full rate, but a single program is limited to only one core (for one…

I am not sure which is better. Surely with processors you would think the 920 would be a higher version because 920 870.
What's bothering me is that the 870 seems to have a higher clock speed, so which one is the better processor?

One of the most important thing to me for a CPU is a good mix between speed and heat. For example five years ago I bought a Core 2 Duo 6300 (max TDP 65W): I put a big heatsink on the CPU, no fans (I do hate moving parts and noise) and it worked like a charm and very silently for five years (and it…
