https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/microprocesors-question/m-p/189094#M95 <P>We have a question about how calculated the processing speed of a microprocessor. According with my understanding "the processing speed of a Microprocessor is = FSB speed X bus/core radio" is that correct? For example if we have the M740 that has a clock speed of 1.73GHZ, bus/core radio = 13 and FSB speed of 533Mhz, is that correct to say that the processing speed is (533*13)=6929Mhz?</P><P>If above is correct, where can we get official statement of that.</P><P>Thanks and best regards, </P> Fri, 16 Apr 2010 17:19:44 GMT idata 2010-04-16T17:19:44Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/microprocesors-question/m-p/189094#M95 <P>We have a question about how calculated the processing speed of a microprocessor.

In example, (533/4)x13= 1732.25Mhz</P> Fri, 04 Jun 2010 21:00:07 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/microprocesors-question/m-p/189095#M96 DArce 2010-06-04T21:00:07Z
