actualy, it is 4ghz!
2 cores 2 ghz ea!

Like I said, 2 cores at 2GHz is not the same as one core at 4GHz, it's a function of time, It doesn't add up like that.
You have a dual core at 2GHz. End of story.
I have a quad core with hyper threading (8 cores, 4 logical, 4 physical) at 2.66 GHz, but that doesn't mean I have 10.64GHz nor 21.28GHz. This is because such an equivalence principle doesn't work logically nor experimentally.

2GHz, and 2.8GHz respectively. (Unless you over clock)
Either way, there are more important things than clock speed.
Basic features ranked by importance for games:
- (GPU) A good graphics card.
- (CPU) At least 2 cores.
- (CPU) Good (large) cache.
- (RAM) At least 3GB's of DDR2/DDR3 RAM.
- (CPU) Decent clock speed (2.2GHz+ imo)
As it stands you have a dual core at 2GHz with 512MB L2 Cache, which is fine for most games.

Death awaits me...
Voxus: Even though you aren't going to get a performance boost out of more than two cores if you are just playing a game in a test environment, you will get a small boost in real life. This is because all of the background processes. When I play a game, I often have a few other programs running, like mIRC, firefox for looking up a guide if I get stuck, xfire, steam, all that random background shit. And since I have 4 cores, those things can hang out in core 1, while the game takes up 2 and 3, for example.
