  2. Instructions per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructions_per_second

    Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.

    As of 2010 the fastest PC processor reached 109 gigaFLOPS (Intel Core i7 980 XE) [51] in double precision calculations. GPUs are considerably more powerful. For example, Nvidia Tesla C2050 GPU computing processors perform around 515 gigaFLOPS [52] in double precision calculations, and the AMD FireStream 9270 peaks at 240 gigaFLOPS. [53]

  4. Performance Rating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_Rating

    [citation needed] These processors were faster than Pentiums of the same speed in some benchmarks, so Cyrix gave them a Performance Rating faster than their clock speed. [3] Some AMD K5 models also use the PR system. AMD initially branded its AMD K6 processors with a "PR2" rating but dropped this after consumer confusion. [4]

    53×10 3: Lincoln TX-2 transistor-based computer, 1958 [2] 92×10 3: Intel 4004, first commercially available full function CPU on a chip, released in 1971; 500×10 3: Colossus computer vacuum tube cryptanalytic supercomputer, 1943

  6. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    System designers building parallel computers, such as Google's hardware, pick CPUs based on their speed per watt of power, because the cost of powering the CPU outweighs the cost of the CPU itself. [7] For spaceflight computers, the processing speed per watt ratio is a more useful performance criterion than raw processing speed due to limited ...

  7. Gaming computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaming_computer

    A gaming computer, also known as a gaming PC, is a specialized personal computer designed for playing PC games at high standards. They typically differ from mainstream personal computers by using high-performance graphics cards , a high core-count CPU with higher raw performance and higher-performance RAM .

  8. Comparison of Intel processors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Intel_processors

    Some Xeon Phi processors support four-way hyper-threading, effectively quadrupling the number of threads. [1] Before the Coffee Lake architecture, most Xeon and all desktop and mobile Core i3 and i7 supported hyper-threading while only dual-core mobile i5's supported it.

  9. Megahertz myth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megahertz_myth

    [citation needed] The argument was that the IBM computer was five times faster than the Apple II, as its Intel 8088 processor had a clock speed roughly 4.7 times the clock speed of the MOS Technology 6502 used in the latter. However, what really matters is not how finely divided a machine's instructions are, but how long it takes to complete a ...
