But the system properties dialogue, accessed by pressing windows key and the pause key, shows 2.66 ghz, not 2.6. Is there a difference? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jacob Kruger Sent: 04 December 2009 07:17 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] pipe2 blast chamber and sarah question
Generally 266MHz is 266 megahertz, where 2.6 would generally be GHz - gigahertz, where a giga is 1024 times a mega. Old school computer science was based on something like: 1 bit times 8 = 1 byte, times 1024 = 1 kilobyte, times 1024 = 1 megabyte times 1024 = 1 gigabyte, times 1024 = 1 terabyte, etc. etc. Kilo is times 1000 in the real world, and times 1024 in computers, a mega is the equivalent of a million, but equals 1024 times 1024 in computers etc. etc. Also remember that the difference between 1Kb and 1KB is the difference between a kilobit and a kilobyte, and the same applies to MB and Mb )check case sensitivity), but those differences are mostly applied to either speeds, or audio track bitrates/quality.
