Dual Processor Comparison Question

Asked by Backflipping in Computer CPU Processors

Tags: processor, dual, comparison

Hi,

I have two systems...

Pentium III 1.2Ghz

Dual Pentium III 866Mhz

My question is this (assuming all other factors are fixed, ie. ram)...

From reading posts on many forums, I have concluded that the dual system will not appear to run at 1.7Ghz. However, will it appear to run faster than the 1.2Ghz system?

I use my computer mainly for web design (dreamweaver, fireworks), web browsing, and running office applications. I tend not to play many games, but do sometimes.

Which computer should I use for the above...?

Many thanks in advance,
