How many cpu does a quad core have...sorry for asking here.
quad = 4
dual = 2
Thank you, my friend just doesn't trust me...lol
Moved (nothing to do with C++).
Please ask your random technical questions on the tech board.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
I support http://www.ukip.org/ as the first necessary step to a free Europe.
Also:
Hexacore = 6 cores
Octacore = 8 cores
Glad we could clear that up

It's worth mentioning that people are answering a question that they assumed you were asking, however, worded incorrectly. To answer your question more pedantically: A quad core CPU has (or rather is), as the article implies, a single CPU with four cores. There is a significant difference between four cores and four CPU.

And how do you call the CPU with 16 or 32 cores?
If I have eight hours for cutting wood, I spend six sharpening my axe.

How I need a drink, alcoholic in nature, after the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics.

Multi-core.
how about Hexteen and Trity Dual
did you just make that up?
Using this as a reference: http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.polygon.names.html
I'd say they'd be called: Hexadeca-core and Triacontakaidi-core.
The last I like most - it will be so easy to ask about it in the shop...

Good line to pick up girls with though
Boy: I've got a Triacontakaidi-core CPU
Girl: O' rly?
Boy: Yeee!
Girl: Do you want to get a drink sometime?
In real life,it's there any program that utilize 4 cpu?
For example in networking program,each thread are created for each client connected to server.Sorry for sounding like a newbie but you have to create 1 thread to utilize 1 cpu,second to utilize second cpu...I hope you understand what I mean.
So my question is that,If I were to buy 4 cpu as opposed to 2 cpu.I'm most likely wasting my money.Programming multithreaded program are hard,I think nobody except for scientist/engineer or guys in pixar that crunch large number would create program that utilize 4^x cpu.
huh,I hope somebody can clear up my confusion?
