Difference between these two processors

[idata]

Hi ,

I need some one to help me understand the major difference between the 2 processors(1 is extreme other one is normal) other than visual effects.

http://ark.intel.com/products/64887/Intel-Core-i7-3920XM-Processor-Extreme-Edition-%288M-Cache-up-to-3_80-GHz%29 Intel® Core™ i7-3920XM Processor Extreme Edition (8M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz)

http://ark.intel.com/products/64889/Intel-Core-i7-3820QM-Processor-%288M-Cache-up-to-3_70-GHz%29 Intel® Core™ i7-3820QM Processor (8M Cache, up to 3.70 GHz)

I have some specific questions in mind, considering i have 32 GB of RAM in both the above cases.

1) I have planned to use Virtualization in my laptop, so does that mean that if i use Extreme processor i can get more number of Systems hosted when compared to the normal processor?

2) I dont find much difference when compared to both other than the bus/ratio from 27 to 29 , how does this matt

Thanks in advance for your time !

The only real difference I see is the clock speed, and the Max TDP (wattage requirements), but other than that, both processors have the exact same features.

For your first question the answer is no, you will have the same number of system hosted.

Regarding the 2nd question, the bus ratio will allow the processor to have a faster clock speed, in this case the Intel® Core™ i7-3920XM will be 0.2 GHz faster.
