Yes but for some reason I thought CPU growth was linear growth by 20% faster every year or some number like that more less and that is not intel or AMD marketing plan at all.Like TobiSGD was saying intel and AMD marketing is CPUs for all price classes and other things like heat and battery issues .

I think it is Moore's law and intel CEO that got me confused here saying every 18 months transistors count and faster CPU thus some how I got in my head every year CPU are % faster.

And not understanding intel and AMD marketing is CPUs for all price classes and other things like heat and battery issues thus why some CPU made today 2012 may be only 20% faster than CPU of 2008 and other CPU 2012 may be 2 or 3 times faster of CPU of 2008 and yes some CPU of 2008 are faster than some 2012 CPU

Not understanding do to the intel and AMD marketing is CPUs for all price classes and other thinks like heat and battery issues and this means you get CPU every year at all levels of speed.
