Hello
Suppose we have a processor with two 3 GHz cores without turbo boost and each core has a thread. So each of the cores of this processor can process 3 billion cycles per second.
Now suppose we have a processor with two 3 GHz cores without turbo boost and each core has two threads.
Can we conclude that each core of this processor is 6 GHz and can process 6 billion cycles per second?
Also, does a cycle consist of fetch, decode and execute, or are each of them a separate cycle and requires 3 cycles (3 seconds) to perform?
Thank you
