More recently, the creators of central processors switched to the development of multi-core processors, quickly completing all developments in the field of single-core crystals. Two well-known companies working on the creation of processors, AMD and Intel continued to produce single-core models, but they were still made on the basis of dual-core developments obtained by “halving”.
Although Intel used the dual-core design of its processors for the release of quad-core and six-core models. Later, in connection with the updating of the architecture, there were three fundamental families of processors that cannot be converted into each other. Despite such a development of the market for quad-core and six-core processors, crystals with two cores continue to occupy most of it, especially in the field of mobile systems, where a processor with more than two cores is quite rare.
Intel is not going to abandon its dual-core developments, so you should get to know them better, because the i3 processor requires special attention.

Summing up, we can say that quad-core and six-core processors at the moment can not show everything that they are capable of. Although their production has recently stepped far forward, the i3 processor, being a dual-core processor, shows very, very good results, very slightly inferior to its quad-core counterparts.
