Can someone explain processors to me?
So it seems to me there are only two major processor manufactures. Because my other post was taken down for copyright reasons, so lets call them Quintel and ABD. Quintel processors are more expensive, but they have also always been considered the superior brand. ABD processors are the cheaper alternative. Despite breaking the record for fastest processor, ABD is still considered second to Quintel. How can this be? Really the only factor I've ever looked at in processors is speed, so if one is faster, shouldn't it be better? And ABD is cheaper too. So why do people think Quintel is the superior brand???

CPU frequencies can only be compared within the same architecture.
The only realistic metrics for performance are the number of cores, instruction sets supported, how multithreaded the applications you wish to use are and instructions per cycle each core can output.

Quintel Is Really A Good One But It Is Too Costly But ABD Is Really A Good One At Cheap Price. Advantage Of Quintel Is You Get Integrated Graphics So No Need For Buying An Extra Graphic Card But If You Buy ABD It Doesn't Have Any Integrated Graphics So You Should Buy It Separately. Both Are Almost The Same The Cores And Clock Matters ,By The Way You Should Upgrade Your Ram ,Motherboard And Power Supply For More Efficiency Of the Processor And System.
Note: When It Comes To Benchmarks Higher End Processors Of Quintel And ABD Are Almost Equal, Only Lower End Processors Differ In Performance
