do the specs on intel processors mean in practice

I plan a new mac and want to know what specifications for processors intel mean in practice

What applications do you intend to use?

What kind of Mac you want? Desktop computer? Laptop?

Generally, the latest Intel processors work faster than the previous with the same speed in GHz.

Most of the processor cores is faster an action subject to the app (s) can use these additional cores.  Many applications can use two cores.

  • The upgrade of Intel processors

    I have a HP Touchsmart want Ultrabook 4, and I'm interested in upgrading my Intel Core i5 processor to the fourth generation (from the third generation). It is even possible, and if this is the case, how can I do to upgrade? I only want to upgrade to a better graphics card. Thank you!

    This article refers only to upgrade (read REPLACEMENT) your device (COMPUTER) with a new one containing the 4th Gen Intel CPU. The facts seem to point to 4th Gen Intel processors requiring that all new sockets with greater spindle counts compared to their Gen 3 processors. If this is the case, no upgrade BIOS will make possible.

  • Satellite P300-150: slow processor during the test with the id tool intel

    Hello

    I just bought a Satellite P300-150 and it was working well in general... play lotro with few problems, but not in dx10 cos it chuggs as hell.

    I noticed he had a genuine problem of warhead of the crisis in the recommended settings, but thought it was just cos he couldn't do.

    But I downloaded the untilty of Intel processor id and he gave the following results... as you can see on the bottom 4 lines the processor is very upset with the expected results for the frequency and buses (fewer than half actually).

    Intel recommends if there is a huge gap, I need to contact the manufacturer... which brought me here.
    Any advice before contacting tech support directly?
    Just maybe I can play warhead after all! : o).

    Hello

    Satellite P300-150 was equipped with the Intel Core 2 Penryn T8300 processor.
    This processor supports Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology.

    Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology allows the system to dynamically adjust the tension and the processor core frequency. This means that the CPU doesn't always work with maximum performance, but only if it of needed. This helps minimize the heat dissipation and allows to secure the battery energy!

    The CPU seems to be slow check with the Intel ID tool ;)

    You can't do this for a simple reason.

    The processor on the motherboard socket are not identical.

    There will be no problem at all update to the AC7260.

    Make sure you get the HMC, not the m2 version version.

    This is another card.  This means that installing a compatible driver from Intel is a requirement. The drivers are mere discovery on the site of Intel doanload.

    Hello

    I was download the updates from the HP support Assistant.  3 updated driver installed fine, but the update BIOS for Intel processors just to be on the road all day.  It seemed to download ok, the blue bar filled and he said that it was installing, but never finished because I had to stop going to bed.

    How long does take to install?  HP laptop laptop 15-ac176na.

    Thank you

    Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    There seems to be a listed version between your and the update offered - F.1E Rev.A (provides microcode update CPU)-the HP bios updates are almost always cumulative, but I saw a few times when it's bbe made in order, then it can be interesting to see if F.1E Rev.A Flash correctly - if this is the case, try to rerun F.1F Rev.A

    F.1E Rev.A is on the following link

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74001-74500/sp74374.exe

    Once the download is complete, close other open windows and programs, then open your download folder and double-click the installer to start the process.  The real flash will occur when you restart the machine - do not interrupt it somehow, even if nothing seems to be happening for a while - when it is finished, the machine will load in Windows as usual.

    Kind regards

  • HP Envy x 360: updated HP Notebook System Bios (Intel processor)

    I updated my BIOS version before (about a month) but I just found out that the HP Notebook System Bios Update (Intel processor) would have been forgotten. I actually cancelled this update and when I tried to do it again once it does me no more. I contacted the HP Chat Support at that time here and they said that my laptop was very good. I got a blue screen of death once and that's all. It was the only issue I've had with my laptop. After that I have updated to the latest version of the update of the birthday a week ago w10. I don't have any problems with it, my laptop works well. I have not encountered any problems. I just reccently bought this 2 months ago.

    Well recently, I got an update in the HP Support Assistant about an update to the Intel 10 series driver. I contacted HP Chat Support and they said that my laptop doesn't have the driver. It was an update General and not directed to any specific PC. Long story short, he said as I have no need, I don't need to update and that my laptop was fine. The Windows 10 anniversary update... Well updates everything that said the tech.

    I was just wondering:

    1. is the HP Notebook System BIOS (Intel processor) update updated CRITICISM that I really need to find a link or something to update?

    2. is it harmful that I have doesn't have the update?

    3. do I really need updating?

    4. is this the reason that the HP Support Assistant advised me on the Intel 10 series driver?

    My Version of the Driver is: 20.19.15.4377

    I hope that I have provided all the information that might help you to help me solve my problem.

    Answer all my answers and also explain are GREATLY appreciated.

    I thank very you much in advance!

    @PaulineTan

    Thanks for the reply to my post,

    And Yes you have covered everything, I hope!

    The 10-anniversary of windows update would install all updates driver concerned as well, so the BSOD issue you referred previously.

    (1) Although the update is not important, you can go ahead and install it as at the moment (this is optional).

    (2) Yes, you can, basically, there is nothing to worry about.

    (3) No, it is not critical.

    (4) No, it will not damage your computer.

    More updates to the bios contains a fix for the specific issues, published by the manufacturer of the motherboard (bios) and at this point because you don't have any problems on the computer, you don't have to install it.

    Let me know, if you need anything else!

    Kind regards.

    Here are the specifications of your HP Pavilion dv6-6192sl Entertainment Notebook computer. Based on the specifications, this model supports "HP Switchable Graphics". Intel driver was will refuse to install it because of the customization of HP. The provided HP driver Intel you have downloaded and tried to install is for the models that have no switchable graphics. The graphics driver AMD high definition (HD) is the pilot of the only viable solution because it contains the AMD and Intel drivers needed for your computer.

    An option that is very popular with people who want more drivers, is the third-party provider http://leshcatlabs.net/.  -I recommend read you and well understand why driver signature enforcement must be disabled to load these drivers and what risks it may pose.

  • How can I download the drivers for a processor that crashed and does not have access to the internet

    How can I download the drivers for a processor that crashed and does not have access to the internet.  The drivers seem to be the problem.

    How can I download the drivers for a processor that crashed and does not have access to the internet.  The drivers seem to be the problem.

    First of all, please note that you mean a computer, not a cpu.  "CPU" means "Central processing unit". In modern personal computers, the CPU is a relatively small chip, an integrated circuit. It is located on the motherboard inside the computer case. It is not the case itself, nor is it the total computer, which includes the case and what it contains.

    Download drivers on another computer and put them on CD or thumb. Bring them to the computer in question, and then copy them there.

  • 17 t j000 touchsmart forcing skyrim use nVida video or turn off the graphics card intel

    Hi all

    I just got this new computer and try to make it work with the game Elder Scrolls v Skyrim   the game starts and runs ok however by default is of poor quality with video intel detected 4600.   Don't want to use the video intel when even, so no matter not much.  I want to use is the video card from nVidia to 740 m.

    I went into the NVIDIA Control Panel and things together global use the nividia card, in program files, I put all the exe files of the game to use the nvidia card.   I entered skyrimprefs and sd3ddivice to change sD3DDevice = "Nvidia GeForce GT M 740" when I start the game it resets the video at the bottom and when I look at his still trying to use the card intel.  The skyrimprefs file is more written with sD3DDevice = 'Intel (R) graphics HD 4600'.

    So the question is how to get the game to work with nVidia card?  Or how to disable the card intel?

    Went into device manage and disabled the graphics card intel and skyrim can't always find the nVidia card. It uses Microsoft basic pilot to return instead.  A difference that I noticed is the base of Microsoft driver it will default the video quality of average quality rather than low quality I get with the 4600 built in processor video card.

    PROBLEM SOLVED

    I was running enb and needed to use the version of the injector instead of the version of wrapper.  the file d3d9.dll in the wrapper version forced things to use the graphics card intel.
