I couldn't find it on net, so. Do you guys know if Intel or AMD or any other company might've been producing mono-core with higher clock frequency? Mono-core with 10GHz would suit good.

Jump to PostThe word your looking for is "single-core". Single-core proccesors are less commonly produced now (in desktops) because multi-core proccesors almost always provide better performance. In general, it's been "kind-of" decided to have lower clock-rates for better energy efficency, and speed is given by improved instructions, multiple cores and bigger memory …
Jump to PostLike Hiroshe, I had never heard of a CPU being clocked above 5 or 6GHz, and even then, that requires liquid cooling, or even liquid nitrogen cooling. It would seem that the world …
Jump to PostThese days, a 4 CPU system will have from 8 (more likely 16) cores, to as many as 32. More cores == slower clock speeds. You can overclock 4 core high-end Intel CPU's to about 5GHz, and possibly more with agressive liquid cooling.
Jump to PostIf your going for speed, then you should probably stick towards using a couple of multi-core processors. It'll be faster then a couple of single-core proccessors (though I'm sure you can cunstruct a computation that runs faster on single-core processors, I wouldn't expect to see one naturally).
If you don't …
Jump to PostI understand 2.5GHz in Intel equals 5GHz in AMD
No. 2.5GHz is the number of instructions per second. So 2.5GHz is always 2.5GHz, and is not a measure of the realtime performance of the programs. For example, you would expect a MIPS processor at 2GHz to be slower …
