seems you are a bit confused there,eh! it seems that u mean uni-core-processor and multi-core-processor. uni simply means 1 so its obvious it is a single core processor. (for eg. Pentium 4's) multi means multiple, so its obvious it is a multiple cores processor. (for eg. core2duo has 2 cores, core2quad has 4 cores, phenom ii x6 110t has 6 cores and so on)
A standard processor had one core like in P1, P2, P3, P4. It means it can performed only one task at a time. Now to make computer able to perform multiple tasks simultaneously it is being manufactured with multiple processors. A Dual-core processor has two cores. A Quad-core processor has four cores. An i3 processor has 2 cores. An i5 processor has 2 or 4 cores (depending on the model you have.) An i7 processor has 2, 4 or 6 cores (depending on the model you have.)
For Intel chips this will be almost any Core I5 and I7(with the ones ending with 3 numbers and X being Hexacores, the rest are just Quad cores), for AMD that would be the Chips with "X3 (3 physical cores)/X4(4 cores)/X6(6 cores) in the name.
Intel Quad Core is one of the newer technologies developed by Intel for their consumer level Core 2 Quad and higher end Xeon processors. Basically, a quad core processor incorporates four processors onto one chip. In theory, you could see a massive improvement in performance from a quad core system but in reality, most programs, (and operating systems for that matter) do not yet support full utilization of all four cores.
The highest number of cores in a single processor chip for consumers (high end servers) is the AMD Opteron 6000 series, with 16 cores per processor, and quad processor motherboards allowing for a total number of 64 x86 cores.
is the processor with dual cores.
Yes, the AMD Phenom II X4 955 is a quad core processor meaning that this processor has four cores or CPUs.
Intel makes several 4 core processors.
6 cores
