Quad Core, which essentially implies four identical processing units embedded in one processor chip is the next line of high performance processors based on Intel’s Core 2 (code named Conroe) architecture. Both Intel & AMD are now relying less on increasing clock speeds and are expected to compete on the multi-core platform (there is market speculation that processor clock speeds are hitting a speed bump due to technology constraints). Each ‘core’ of the quad-core processor has a relatively modest clock speed of 2.66 GHz. But Intel has taken the lead in the desktop arena in terms of dual core. The quad-core version promises a performance enhancement of more than 80% over the dual core range.
