Well, sometimes you can't see the wood for all the trees ;)I'm still waiting for you to prove that you have knowledge above and beyond anything short of basic. I'm not seeing it.
At least I backed up what I had to say. Can you?
You backed up what? I didn't see any references anywhere or explanations of terms. All I've seen you do is blatantly state that I'm wrong providing 0 evidence for the case.
I don't think you understand anything aboutWell I guess that is your problem, but here it goes
CPU yields
An average of how many good CPUs you get from a wafer (do I need to explain what a wafer is also? :D ) relative the maximum amount that fits. Often it's also (miss)used as a term of the "quality" of the CPUs you get from the manufaturing process (ie high yield = many/most of the CPUs are good enough to qualify in the top speed bins).
coresThe CPU without the cashe.
CPU architecture
I've been using it in the manner of grouping the same core & stepping. But I guess formally it's suppoed to represent eg the intel x86 architecture. Another one of those words that are used in more then one sence in dayly speach.
Voltage
U = R * I Do I need to be more specific?
FSB speeds
The MB main busspeed that Intels marketing department a few years back (when PII arrived with it's ½ CPU clock L2 cache) though would be nice to rename into Front Side Bus (for no good reason at all other to have a new nice expression to create hype around). PCI, AGP, Memory and ISA busses used to have specific fractions of this main MB busspeed to determine it's clock (cheap & effective way to keep all busses peudosynced, but troublesome if you want to overclock some parts but not others).
or anything that has to do with what you want to do.
I guess it might be worth mentioning CPU multiplier too, which on my Cel 300 is 4.5 x making it run at [EMAIL PROTECTED] "FSB" and 450MHz@ 100MHz "FSB".
