Explain to the common people what is wrong.) My experience is based only on my own observation, and in simple words.
After you announced that I did not understand anything, you had to write how and what actually happens. For now, you only said that you do not know about string theory. Naturally, I did not go into details about the graphic process and so on. what for

In fact, everything inside there is very difficult. It’s not that 4 cores at 1 GHz are better than 2 cores at 2 GHz. It all depends on the tasks. If the programmer has not foreseen multithreading in his application, then the application will be spinning on one core, and transferring to other cores will cause more brakes.
There are tasks that are not parallel at all. For archiving, for example, more frequency = faster work, and the number of cores is not important. But in the browser, you can create a stream for each request to the server, so viewing one site can be performed on all cores a little bit.

The link to the processor describes the graphics. The core and technologies are like those of the i series, but less computational units and frequencies.

If I heard correctly, then on drive C is free of 12.3GB of 23.3GB. The rest, I guess, is reserved for backup.

I compared the san spider in general acer aspire one zg5 atom N270 gave me 1300 ms for Win7x32, and it is greyedy with a normal screw and more memory, but I'm sorry and the studio 2012 puts and collects (put on a business trip as a chance to put a chance)) , and wow something like the tanks start up. And here, just imba almost 3 times faster (z3740 - 538ms) tablet. Quad Core q9400 squeezed home computer about 200ms.

Octane on N270 - 2543, z3740 - 5600, Q9400-13770.

Judging by the video, Star Craft 2 goes to almost a medium settings, which is encouraging. Does anyone know, than the D version of the Atom is different from the usual?

Rep: (3)
Redcrus, This question has already been raised more than once. I don’t follow this branch; in fact, the D version is stripped down; they support different types of memory operative:

IntelВ® Atom в„ў Processor Z3740D
(2M Cache, up to 1.86 GHz)
DDR3L-RS 1333 maximum capacity 2 Gb
Bandwidth 10.6 GB / s
1 memory channel

IntelВ® Atom в„ў Processor Z3740
(2M Cache, up to 1.86 GHz)
LPDDR3-1066 maximum capacity 4 Gb
Bandwidth 17.1 GB / s
2 memory channels

LPDDR3 Greater memory density, improved energy efficiency. Like so.

For some reason, the graphics frequency is a little different) I didn’t go into it)

Rep: (8)
The site says so in contrast to the Z3740, the Z3740D only offers a single-channel memory controller and a lower display resolution.
