I was just wondering if the Macbooks processor speed of 2.0Ghz is good compared to other PC's... I would like to know before i buy one. I plan on buying a macbook mainly because of Garageband. I will be using the internet heavily on it while using Windows Messenger for Mac. Still unsure about getting Office for Mac...
Megahertz (MHz) is a measure of a CPU's processing speed, or clock cycle, in millions per second. So, a 32-bit 800-MHz Pentium III can potentially process 4 bytes simultaneously, 800 million times per second (possibly more based on pipelining)! The goal of the memory system is to meet those requirements. A computer's system RAM alone is not fast enough to match the speed of the CPU. That is why you need a cache (discussed later). However, the faster RAM is, the better. Most chips today operate with a cycle rate of 50 to 70 nanoseconds. The read/write speed is typically a function of the type of RAM used, such as DRAM, SDRAM, RAMBUS. We will talk about these various types of memory later. First, let's talk about system RAM.
