Make the right Purchase Celeron amd Pentium Vs Core i3,i5 and i7
If you're wondering whether you need a Core i5 processor or whether
you should I buy a dual-core or quad-core CPU, here's some help so you
can make a decision.
These days, even a basic dual-core processor is fast enough for undemanding tasks. This means that whether you're buying a laptop or a PC, Windows should run perfectly well on even a budget model.
When we say 'undemanding' we mean just about everything bar gaming and video editing. 3D rendering and other intensive applications are also excluded from the undemanding list. Essentially, if you just want to do all the normal things people do with their computers - email, web browsing, YouTube, editing and sharing photos, Microsoft Office - a basic processor is fine.
Some applications can also take advantage of multiple cores so even
if you're only running that one program, you'll see an improvement in
its performance. Strictly speaking, though, there's never just one
program running, since Windows itself uses processing power, and CPU
time has to be divided up between the operating system and any programs
you're running.
The law of diminishing returns applies, so the latest octacore or even dodeca-core isn't going to mean 8x or 12x better performance.
Bottom line: you need at least two cores, but four is better.
These days you can't just go by clock speed. You have to take into account the number of cores, the cache and the speed in GHz.
Even then it's tricky, as there are other factors, such as the process used and the amount of power a processor uses.
Newer processors are generally always more power efficient, which is important in laptops. You either get more battery life for the same performance, or more performance for the same battery life.
To answer the question, though, you don't need a Core processor for those undemanding tasks we mentioned above. A Pentium or even Celeron will do the job. But depending on the exact processor, you might find everything a little slow and unresponsive. It's best to check reviews of that individual processor, or reviews of the particular laptop or PC you're considering buying before making any decisions.

PC processors: How many cores do I need?
You rarely, if ever, see single-core processors any more, and it's well worth avoiding these in laptops and PCs. More cores generally means more performance, but more importantly, the ability to run multiple applications at the same time.The law of diminishing returns applies, so the latest octacore or even dodeca-core isn't going to mean 8x or 12x better performance.
Bottom line: you need at least two cores, but four is better.
PC processors: Do I need a Core i3, i5 or i7?
This is a similar, but subtly different question from 'how many cores'. Generally, you get what you pay for, so more expensive processors are faster. But how fast do you need?These days you can't just go by clock speed. You have to take into account the number of cores, the cache and the speed in GHz.

Geek:How to Install wordpress Using Wamp Sever
Having WordPress set up as a localhost on my computer has become
invaluable to my workflow, particularly as I regularly test themes and
plugins.
My local sites run much faster, plus testing products on my local machine is much safer than testing on a live site – not to mention much cheaper without the cost of web hosting.
Setting up a local server environment for WordPress isn’t difficult and will save you time in the long run since you won’t have to install and uninstall a fresh copy of WordPress online each time you test or develop something for WordPress.
There are many options for Windows. I’ve previously looked at how to set up a localhost using XAMPP. In this tutorial I’ll walk you through how to set up WampServer, including installation, creating a MySQL database, and installing WordPress. I’ve included optional steps for setting up Multisite.
WordPress isn’t a stand-alone application and needs server software to run. WampServer provides the necessary server environment so you can install and run WordPress on your local machine rather than on the internet.
The WampServer site offers two versions of the software – 32 BITS or 64 BITS. Click on the version you prefer.
A warning message will display. Click on “download directly,” and you’ll be taken to the SourceForge website. The download will automatically start in 5 seconds.
The WampServer executable file is small at just 41.5MB, compared to XAMPP, which is 125MB.
You may receive warnings about installing the software on your computer. As you would when installing any software on Windows, use your best judgment, though it’s best to ignore the warnings if you want the installation to continue.
The WampServer setup wizard will guide you through the installation.
The next window will ask you to agree with the software’s terms and conditions. Check “I accept the agreement” and click “Next.”
Next, select where you would like to install the software and click “Next.” The default is c:\wamp, which I’m going to use for this tutorial.
In the next window, you can choose to create shortcuts so you can quickly and easily access WampServer on your computer. I’m not going to create any for this tutorial.
The software is now ready to install, so go ahead and click “Install.”
Once installed, you may be prompted to choose your default browser. In my case, I chose Google Chrome.
You’ll then be prompted again to specify the SMTP server and the email address to be used by PHP. These settings aren’t all that important, so just leave the defaults and click “Next.”
Installation is now complete! Click “Finish” and the software will launch.
For Windows 32BIT: Install the Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package x86 : VC10 SP1 vcredist_x86.exe
For Windows 64BIT: Install the Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package x64 : VC10 SP1 vcredist_x64.exe
Depending on your local machine, you may have to install one or both of these files. If WampServer still doesn’t work, trying installing Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4.
If you continue to have any issues, check out the WampServer forums.
If any security warnings pop up, such as firewall warnings, be sure to allow access otherwise the software won’t work.
If you click “Finish” and the software does launch, a WampServer icon will appear in the systems tray.
The color of the WampServer icon allows you to quickly determine the status of your servers.
Click on the WampServer icon in your system tray and then click on phpMyAdmin.
A new browser window will automatically open with the phpMyAdmin interface.

Click on “Databases” near the top-left and you’ll be prompted to create a new database. I’ve called mine “WP”.
When you’ve entered a name, click “Create” and close the window.
In order to get WordPress working with WampServer you need to unzip WordPress to the right folder. Extract WordPress to the C:/wamp/www/ folder.
You can rename the WordPress folder whatever you like. I’m going to keep it as “wordpress.”
Next, open your WordPress folder, find the wp-config-sample.php file and rename it wp-config.php. Open the file and scroll down until you see the following lines:
These lines of code define the login details for your database. Replace “database_name_here” with the name of your database, which in my case is “WP.”
Replace “username_here” with “root” and leave “password_here” blank.
Save the file and close it.
Now we can get on with installing WordPress.
Open your browser and go to http://localhost/wordpress/
You should see the welcome screen for the famous five minute WordPress installation process.
Enter your details and click “Install WordPress.”
Your WordPress installation is now complete!
Open your wp-config.php file again and add/edit the following lines to activate Multisite’s installation mode:
Click on the WampServer icon in your system tray and ensure your Apache and MySQL servers are running.
Login to your localhost site in your browser and under “Tools” you will now have a new option, “Network Setup.”
Enter a name for your network and your email address, then click “Install.”
WordPress will prompt you to edit your wp-config.php and .htaccess files.
Following the onscreen instructions, open wp-config.php and add the following lines underneath your previous edit:
Next, open .htaccess. If you can’t find it, make sure hidden files are displaying on your computer.
Your .htaccess file should look like this:
Edit your .htaccess file to complete your Multisite installation.
Multisite should now be enabled and working on your WordPress site!

What is WampServer?
WampServer is a popular Windows web development environment that allows you to create web applications with Apache2, PHP and a MySQL database.WordPress isn’t a stand-alone application and needs server software to run. WampServer provides the necessary server environment so you can install and run WordPress on your local machine rather than on the internet.
Installing WampServer
Head over to the WampServer site and download the latest version of the software. WampServer is an open source project and is free to use.The WampServer site offers two versions of the software – 32 BITS or 64 BITS. Click on the version you prefer.

Installation is now complete! Click “Finish” and the software will launch.
Check WampServer is Running
If you click “Finish” and the software doesn’t launch and you run into any errors, it might be thatyou don’t have the Microsoft Visual C++ libraries installed on your computer. Apache and PHP won’t run without them.For Windows 32BIT: Install the Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package x86 : VC10 SP1 vcredist_x86.exe
For Windows 64BIT: Install the Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package x64 : VC10 SP1 vcredist_x64.exe

If you click “Finish” and the software does launch, a WampServer icon will appear in the systems tray.
The color of the WampServer icon allows you to quickly determine the status of your servers.
- If the icon is red, the server isn’t running and is offline. You may need to restart WampServer or check out the WampServer forums for more help.
- If it is orange, the server is partially running, i.e. Apache may be running and the MySQL service is offline. Click on the WampServer icon and check the service status next to Apache and MySQL to see if they are running. You may need to restart WampServer, and if it still doesn’t work, check out the WampServer forums.
- If the icon is green, it means the server is running and you should be able to access localhost from your browser.
