You are trying to decide if you want to either invest in a new quad core processor to accelerate your favorite game, or buy a faster single processor. Based on your analysis the quad core can give a 3x performance boost over a single core. Assume 80% of your code is parallelizable. How much would the frequency of the single processor need to be increased to execute your game at the same speed as the quad core ?
