Is the iphone 5 a quad core or dual core?

The subject line says it all. Anyone know the answer yet? If it's a dual core how is it better than the A5X in the iPad 3?

Confirmed: http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/iphone-5-what-we-didnt-get-50009172/
Also the quote Apple gave about the iPhone 5 being the slimmest smartphone is incorrect:

Is the iPhone 4s a Quad Band phone?

Is the iPhone 4S a quad band phone? Is the iPhone 4 a quad band phone?

Hello nileswimmer,
If I understand correctly you want to know if the iPhone 4s can use 4 cellular bands with a GSM network. According to the following artcle, yes it does:
Apple - iPhone - iPhone 4s Technical Specifications
World phone
UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); CDMA EV-DO Rev. A (800, 1900 MHz)3
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Why is the i7 called a quad core when it has 6 cores?

Intel says the i7 has six processing cores, but Apple calls it a quad core, which means four cores. Why?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Intel Core i7 Extreme has got six cores, but Apple doesn't use it for their Macs. Other Core i7 processors have got four cores

Is iPhone 5 has quad core processor?

hey iwant to know that has iPhone 5 quad core processor?i know that it has A6 chip.if any one ans me that should give me link from where u read.

Dual core.

Can I replace my MBP 13" early 2011 dual core 2.3GHz intel i5 with the coming ivy bridge quad core?

The ivy bridge processors are coming out soon (or may already be out). I have heard that macbook pro 13" models might be able to use the new processers due to their lower energy useage. I presume that I will be able to take my mac to an apple store and have it installed. Is this information true? Any ideas on a price?

Is this information true?
Absolutely not. The processor is soldered to the mainboard, and is not in a socket. It is not upgradeable.
To upgrade, sell your old one and buy a new one -- just like a car when you want a bigger engine.

2 Dual core intel xeon vs quad core. Whats the difference??

I came across someone who's selling his mac pro 1.1 (aprox 2-3 years old machine) which hosts 2 dual core intel xeon processors 2.66 Ghz (4 total cores) with an L2 cache of 4 MB per processor and 3 gb of RAM. He is asking for 1200.00
I wonder:
1. is there a significant difference between the machine described above and the new 2.66GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon 3500 series processor machines Apple offers?
2. Is 1200 a good deal considering its a 2-3 year old machine? how much would it cost me brand new?
3. I am planning to purchase the machine to use Logic Pro 8 (considering to upgrade to 9) which I currently run on my mac book intel core duo 1.8 GHZ. Which of the two machines will be optimal for it?
Thanks in advance for your time!

Using the scores on the GeekBench site, I show that a Mac Pro 1,1 2.66GHz gets a score of 4544.
http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/218641
The Mac Pro 4,1 Quad Core 2.66GHz with all its Nehalem glory gets a score of 9256.

Benchmark tests versus real-world performance, along with your mileage, may vary. But that should give you an idea of what kind of what you're getting.

Give it to me straight -- Can the new Quad Core iMac run Maya well?

Hey all, I've been hunting around the interwebs for reviews of the new 27 inch quad core machine and I'm having a heck of a time tracking down specifics regarding iMacs and their ability to run Maya, After Effects, other adobe programs, etc.
I'm a student right now, going on four years. I own a small graphic design/animation business and I'm afraid my poor little Macbook Pro is going to keel over on me any day now. I've noticed a drop in performance in the last six months, especially with Maya and After Effects. So I've been evaluating options, and I know it has to run OSX. Windows has only given me headaches in regards to Maya work. In short, it's gonna be a Mac.
I've priced out a Mac Pro, and I'd rather not spend 3 grand on a machine that doesn't have a monitor, and may have properties that I'm paying for that I don't necessarily need: monstrous expandability, server capabilities, a big-stinking CPU footprint. But the mantra I always hear is "Only pro models can run Maya". So I reluctantly began putting away money for a new Mac Pro, uncertain if I'd be able to afford the software to go with it. Then I read this article:
http://gizmodo.com/5411073/why-its-gotten-straight-stupid-to-buy-a-mac-pro
In my mind, this article couldn't be more perfect for my position. It's telling me, "These high end iMacs are almost as powerful as the Mac Pro you can't afford. You can save a thousand bucks off the base computer. It comes with a monitor that you don't have to pay for. " But unfortunately the one question I need answered, that I'm having a heckuva time tracking down is "Can the stinking thing run Maya or can't it?" And if it can, will it be crippled?
So, please, anyone out there, can the new monster iMac run Maya, and if it can, does it suck at it?

No, there's no way to talk to Apple technical support via email, and they probably could not or would not be able to answer any questions about performance with third-party products. I doubt that more than a handful of Apple employees, sales rep or tech, would have access to any benchmark data on Maya with any model of Mac, and those Apple people would probably be those working with the Pro VAR channel or directly with large production companies.
I just got off the phone with an Apple sales associate who emphatically confirmed that the i7 iMac can run "all that Adobe stuff", but she'd never heard of Maya.... fun....
Not terribly surprising; Maya is pretty specialized and the Apple Store phone reps are generalists working mostly with consumers. Most people running Maya would be working with an Apple VAR or would otherwise have access to specialists. You might try talking to an Apple Pro Video/Film VAR - there are a number around the country though none in Salt Lake, apparently - or asking in the Autodesk forums:
http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-maya/
If you search for "iMac", you'll find some comments, though none I can find yet regarding performance with the new iMac models. But if you post asking if anyone has experience with Maya on the i7, you might get useful responses.
Regards.
P.S.
And on top of that I can't buy a 27 inch display separately
Well, you can, and they're not terribly expensive; under $400.00. But that might be more than your budget could accept, which may be what you meant. I'd elect a smaller primary monitor and go with two displays in any case, even with an iMac. I find it much better for workflow to have a monitor for the primary canvas and a separate one for tool palettes, etc.

13" or 15" is the quad core i7 and additional graphics worth the added money

I am looking to replace my 2009 13.3 macbook pro that I've upgraded with a new retina model. Regardless of which model I get it will have the 1 TB storage and 16GB Ram so really my only debate if I want to pay for the additional screen size, secondary graphics processor, and quad core cpu. I use the system for personal use, web browsing, email, itunes, and I play world of warcraft. However I also use this system for business and run parallels with a widows 7 installation running autocad (2D only), ePlan, excel, Rockwell Automation RSLogix suite and RSNetworx, as well as Siemans WinCC HMI software that utilizes a SQL Database. It is not uncommon for me to have all of the windows side apps running at once with multiple windows of each open.
I know the quad processor and the additional graphics card are better than what is available on the 13" retina but I'm not sure if I will see the difference with my usage. Should I go all the way and get the 15" with the i7 2.6GHz Quad core or settle for the 13" with the i7 2.8GHz Dual core?

Hi eric,
In addition to the factors you mention (and yes, I think the dedicated GPU is significant), here are the GeekBench (the standard for measuring computer speed) scores for your two machines:
13" 7899
15" 13287
Thats a pretty big jump in performance, and yes you will notice it with most of the apps you mention, some more than others.

I figured out that whole "iPhoto not seeing the iPhone" thing...

...for me, anyway.
Hopefully, it will work for others, as well.
To preface the problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1029222
and
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1043884
To briefly summarize:
My iPhone syncs perfectly fine with iTunes. It DID with iPhoto. The last 60 or so photos, every time I try to sync, iPhoto either says "No items to import" or doesn't even see the iPhone at all (but, iTunes and ASP does).
The last couple days, iPhoto never showed it in the list to even tell me there's no photos to import.
So, I came across an idea whilst trying to go to sleep last night. I got the idea from when I was trying to get my massive photo library to work across the network with Connect360 (so I could stream my photos to my XBOX 360). After several emails with Nullriver, we couldn't come up with a solution... that is until, just for grins, I swapped out the library with a new one with just a couple photos. Then it worked fine.
So, my idea was that, for some reason, as the iPhone took on more photos, the less reliable it became when trying to sync to iPhoto, as was certainly the case in my situation. After too many photos, it just ceased recognition. I had 260 photos in my camera reel. This morning I deleted all but the last 80 I couldn't get to sync.
I plug it into my computer, and immediately, iPhoto pops up and asks if I want to import 80 items. I say, "Please, for the love of God." (It's a button in the debug menu
So, if you are having trouble, try deleting out a lot of the old, already synced photos... get your camera reel numbers down to when it actually worked.
Post here if it fixed your problem - or didn't...
Gigabit Ethernet G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) Lots of RAM, HD Space, and Apple Lovin'

OK... So, just to make sure it's not my home machine, I plugged my iPhone into my Quad-Core 2.5ghz G5 at work.
Guess what happened?
iTunes popped up and tried to erase everything (Apple needs to fix the 'Automatically sync this iPhone' so that it stays machine independent - as in, if I plug it into my work machine just to harvest the power, I don't want to have to worry about quickly hitting the stop button - but, when I get home, I want my iPhone to automatically sync... but it won't, because it retains the work machine's setting, and vice versa)
iPhoto DIDN'T pop up. I manually opened iPhoto
(a tough task, I know), it SAW the iPhone, but said the usual "There are no items to import." Same thing with Image Capture (0).
So, and here's the kicker... I took 5 more photos...
I plugged it into the Quad-Core...
iTunes popped up fine.
iPhoto didn't.
It also didn't seem to 'see' the iPhone any more.
It's not in the Source list... where is it!
Image Capture only shows my Scanner and no longer the photo import dialog.
My total photos?
A whopping 171...
I'll let you know if it does this when I get home.
OK - nevermind.
I took another 7 photos.
I plugged it in.
Both iTunes and iPhoto popped up.
iPhoto asked if I wanted to import the 178 items.
I wonder if it's some kind of issue with the internal iPhone photo library and it's cataloging... or something.

Quad-Core Processor

Does iPhone 5S have Quad-Core Processor?

No the A7 is dual core but at this time outperforms Quad Cores in other phones. The number of cores is not as important as the architecture of the chip itself and how it works with the operating system.

Is a 13" macbook pro i7 Quad-Core available?

Was looking on the apple site and didnt see an option to get a Quad Core 13" Macbook Pro. You can upgrade to an i7 but it says it's still a dual core, is that right?
Thanks

I had this same question today. On eBay today, I saw a 2011 13" with 8gig Ram go for 1/2 what a 15" would be going for in the same model month/year. So, I started looking into this. Sure enough a 15", current with the 13", has a quad core.
It seems that the 15" is the "bread & butter" of Apple computer. Going back to the first G4, changes in 15" computers have been made very much more often than with the other 12/13" or 17" models. I started making a comparison, but ran out of time. Below, is a fair description of the changes in processor speeds and number of cores and when they came about. Likewise the display changes and max RAM changes may be interesting. (The highlighted models are simply the two I own presently.)

Dual-core or Quad-core for Premiere, After Effects, and Photoshop CS4?

We are planning to purchase around 25 computers for a computer lab for working with CS4 Production Premium at the high school level. Mainly Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Photoshop. Our budget is, unfortunately, a mere $550-$625 per machine (just the tower though, we have monitors). I've already established that a 64-bit operating system makes a significant difference in the performance, even though Photoshop is the only 64-bit application, and I'm now hung up on whether or not it's worth the cost of a quad-core processor over a dual-core.
I'm discovering the different hardware needs for each application, so I'm trying to find an economic balance that will give me the best performance per buck. It seems that Premiere benefits significantly from more cores (we're editing 1440x1080 AVCHD), and this article over at Tom's Hardware has convinced me that I don't want to compromise with a hyperthreaded dual-core for After Effects.
I'm also struggling with what part the graphics card plays in the mix. Which applications lean on the graphics card, and will it make much difference as long as I meet the requirements (OpenGL 2.0, Shader Model 3.0, Direct3D 10, and 256 Mb Ram)?
I understand I will need to settle for less-than-awesome with my budget, but I'm already making sacrifices to get the number to $625. I would like to make sure that those sacrifices will be worth it for a quad-core system.

I think I may have answered my own question by looking at these charts over at Tom's Hardware:
http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/2009-desktop-cpu-charts-update-1/Adobe-Premiere-Pro-CS4 ,1404.html
http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/2009-desktop-cpu-charts-update-1/Adobe-Photoshop-CS-4,1 387.html
http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/desktop-cpu-charts-2010/Video-Editing-Adobe-After-Effec ts-CS5,2427.html
I think that the jump to the quad core in Premiere Pro is worth it, even if I don't see as large of an improvement in Photoshop or After Effects. I am still interested in the role of the graphics card in the mix if anyone can shed some light on that. Will an integrated graphics card (like an Intel GMA x4500 or Radeon HD4200) suffice or will I need an actual graphics card to realize the benefits?
Thanks

Error message after installing an AMD Phenom II quad core processor

1. HP Pavilion Slimline s5120y Desktop PC
2. Windows 7 64-bit
3. "Uncompatible processor installed, shutting down in a few seconds"
4. I replaced the AMD Athlon X2 7750 processor with an AMD Phenom II quad core processor
I had done some research on upgrading my son's computer's processor from an AMD Athlon X2 7750 processor to an AMD Phenom II quad core processor. I checked the compatible processors on the HP website and it showed that the AMD Phenom II quad core processor would be supported. The specs for the Phenom II I bought are: 95 watt / 2.4 GHz / quad core / hyper transport technology / AM2+ socket / integrated DDR memory controller / HD9750XAJ4BGH.
After installing the processor (with thermal paste) I booted up the computer and the message: "Uncompatible processor installed, shutting down in a few seconds" showed up. I tried again and the same thing. Is this processor NOT compatible with this computer or is something else going on?

Please discuss this under desktop catagory for better suggestions and quicker resolution. thank you

I have a late 2012 mac mini with an i5 2 core can I replace it with an i7 quad core?

I have a late 2012 mac mini with an i5 2 core can I replace it with an i7 quad core?

A few places online may still offer the i7 2.3GHz quad-core Late 2012 MINI (Oct 2012 to Oct 2014)
that allows the user-upgrade of RAM to 16GB, and this one I've seen is a Server model and has
two 1-TB Hard Disk Drives. The B&H store in NY online has this listed, if in stock now, price &
shipping in continental US is good until tomorrow.
Your i5 dual-core is still desirable to many, & you may be able to resell it if not needed.
Good luck & happy computing!

2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel core i7 WILL IT WORK WITH FCP?

I am planning on purchasing the new IMAC 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel core i7 27" screen for work with FCP. The requirements to install FCP state in relevent part:
ATI or NVIDIA graphics processor (integrated Intel Graphics processors not supported).
Does this mean that the 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel core i7 27" screen will NOT OPERATE FCP. I know that the Quad-Core Intel i7 is an upgrade for the system should I stay with the basic NVIDIA graphics processor?

I understand there is a difference between the "graphics cards" and the Processor and Memory?
Graphics Cards:
27-inch model with dual-core processor, one of the following:
ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR3 memory
ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR3 memory
27-inch model with quad-core processor:
ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR3 memory
I am going to purchase the quad-core processor which will come with the ATI Radeon HD 4850 processor with 512MB of GDDR3 memory
The Processor and memory according to Apple Specs are as follows:
27-inch models only, one of the following:
2.66GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.2GHz
2.8GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.46GHz; Hyper-Threading for up to eight virtual cores
I would like to purchase the 2.8GHz quad-core Intel core i7 processor
This is where my concern is when FCP says (integrated Intel graphics processors not supported)!
