All Intel processors can be used for C++ programming. All you need is a suitable compiler/linker. With regards performance, the N450 does not perform well compared to modern netbook processors. Given its age this is hardly surprising.
There are Celeron dual core processors today. However, just because you have Celeron processor, it does not mean your Celeron processor is a dual core processor. The easiest way to tell is to look at the Intel sticker on your computer. If it says "Dual Core," then it is dual core. If it does NOT say "Dual Core," then it is not dual core.
Newer Intel processors incorporate something known as "SpeedStep." When the processor is not being used extensively, it downclocks itself to conserve power. You can disable this feature if it bothers you in your BIOS.
Hyper-threading (officially termed Hyper-Threading Technology or HTT) is an Intel-proprietary technology used to improve parallelization of computations performed on PC microprocessors via simulatnious multithreading. It is an improvement on super-threading. It debuted in U.S. Patent 4,847,755 (Gordon Morrison et al.) and can be seen in use on the Intel Xeon processors and Pentium 4 processors. The technology improves processor performance under certain workloads by providing useful work for execution units that would otherwise be idle, for example during a cache miss. A processor with Hyper-Threading enabled is treated by the operating system as two processors instead of one. Hyper-threading relies on support in the operating system as well as the CPU. Conventional multiprocessor support is not enough to take advantage of hyper-threading. For example, even though Windows 2000 supports multiple CPUs, Intel does not recommend that hyper-threading be enabled under that operating system.
The 8253 and 8254 are Programmable Interval Timers (PITs), which perform timing and counting functions.They were primarily designed for the Intel 8080/8085-processors, but later used in x86-systems.They (or an equivalent circuit embedded in a larger chip) are found in all IBM PC compatibles.

I hear that the latest computer processors and the best are made by Intel. The newest with some good reviews right now is the Intel Core I7 processors.
The current lineup of Core processors includes the latest Intel Core i7, Intel Core i5, and Intel Core i3
The latest processor made by AMD is the AMD A10-7850K. It is used in desktops and laptops. The latest processor from Intel is the Intel Core M processor.

As of 3/14/2010, Intel's latest processors are the Core i series. The Core i series consists of the Core i3, Core i5, Core i7.
Currently, there are multiple processors on the market, namely the Via C-7, Intel's Core 2, Celeron, and Xeon series', and AMD's Athlon, Turion, and Opteron series'. processors of 2010 intel sandy bridge
Intel tends to make better processors than AMD.
There are a couple of different types of Intel processors, but I only know so much about this subject. But I do know that mac computers have Intel Core Duo processors and some HP computers have Intel premium 4 and Gateway has Intel Centrino Duo. If you want to buy the best Intel processor then buy a Mac since they come with the best Intel.
Intel dg33,Intel dg31,Intel d975 can support quad core processors and ddr4 ram Intel dg33,Intel dg31,Intel d975 can support quad core processors and ddr4 ram
The two major manufacturers of processors are Intel and AMD
Most computers that use Intel processors have an Intel sticker on them to advertise this fact. And Intel processors are generally faster, cooler, and more power-efficient than mobile AMD processors.
