atheistandproud: Brilliant write up!! But I really want to know how you define a processor and a CPU cause on blog posts and textbooks they are use interchangeably. Most people believe that they both mean the same but in your write up; you wrote the CPU is a main component of the processor. |

Wicked. How can u claim u bought a latest phone in the year 2020, and u do a background check on its processor, u later found out that it is made up of the first series of 64-bit processor that is dated back as far 2012.. Na everybody dey scam diz days 1 Like |

Runningwater: The CPU's brain is called the SoC. It is an integrated circuit that contains CPU cores, GPU, RAM, ROM, Network modems, WiFi and Bluetooth radio etc all soldered on one chip hence the name "System on a Chip" or SoC. Another name for an SoC is simply just processor. |

atheistandproud: Does GPU has effect on high graphics games.. Because I have good CPU spec and weak GPU spec (PowerVR GE8320). while a have CPU spec which is not up to my own but have good GPU spec(Mali-T880MP2). Does that mean my friend phone is than mine in gaming? |

scanner1000:Well, it's hard to say. Real time physics and movement is controlled by the CPU, graphics is handled by the GPU. Do the math plus some research. |
Re: Dual Core, Quad Core, Octa Core. What Do They Mean? by atheistandproud(m): 10:40am On Jun 21, 2020 |
scanner1000: The aim of this post is that you become literate especially because one company domiciled in Nigeria has this terrible habit of using very low end specs, overcharging for it and and deliberately misinforming the public. I had this conversation with a graduate, a former neighbor of mine from almost 10 years ago in University. He said, "shey you dey yab my phone (name withheld), them don release phone with Octa core processor. No more Mediatek. In fact, I sure say Octa core go better pass Una Snapdragon. But wait fess oh, na which company dey do Octa core?" I had to explain to him that Octa core only depicts that there are eight cores or CPUs inside the processor. It's not a new brand or anything. Also, lots of people as soon as they learn these things, they start trying to compare their devices to everyone else's. The aim is education, not competition. No give yourself unnecessary headache. You don buy, you don buy. Make a wiser decision next time. Finally: The CPU runs the graphics (builds them from the game engine), the GPU displays them. Even if the CPU is good enough to run the game engine well, a bad GPU may render the graphics poorly, slowly or even incorrectly. I once used a low end phone and when playing PUBG. I could hear everyone else moving but in my own game, the houses didn't load, the fences were not showing, I couldn't see my teammates. I hated the phone. If the CPU is bad, then I doubt that the GPU can save it. Some GPUs are designed to take some processing load off the CPU so as to try optimize the gaming but las las, the primary responsibility of loading and running the game lies with the CPU. If the CPU cannot do it's job, them there will nothing that GPU can do. Some CPUs also help relieve the load of rendering graphics off the GPU too. Na division of labour but the CPU is more important in gaming. The GPU is more important for the graphical output. |

bjayx: It means that the processor in your phone was made by the company called Qualcomm and that it has 8 cores (CPUs) inside, but that does not tell us the full name of the processor as Qualcomm has designed plenty Octacore chipsets. Since the full name of the chipset is not published I can guess the company that has that bad habit of not releasing the full details of specs 1 Like |
