I want to buy a new computer for installing Open Suse 11.4.
According to the manual, there are the following system requirements: "Pentium* III 500 MHz or higher processor (Pentium 4 2.4 GHz or higher or any AMD64 or Intel* EM64T processor recommended)"
Since I am not very familiar with hardware, I have two questions:
1. Do the requirements cited above include Intel i3 and i5, or are these processors lower than Pentium* III?
Those are very very much faster than a Pentium III 500 Mhz.
2. Do the requirements cited above include AMD Phenom II X4 N950 Quad or is this Porcessor lower than than Pentium* III?
Same for this one. Note that a Quad-core CPU has 4 CPU cores, while Intel i3, i5 are dual core CPUs which have 2 CPU cores. (more core -> more speed) Hope that helps. -- İsmail Dönmez - openSUSE Booster SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
