I concur - the Dual Core cannot be twice as fast as a Quadcore - I really
doubt this.
That's my problem (one of many ;-) - to find a reliable source of
benchmarks. I do not need something telling me how fast Quake runs - it's
more a function of the graphics-card anyway - I would like to have a
reliable source showing the performance of the respective CPUs. So I tried
here - raytracing is a task that consumes CPU power.
