Are you having problems with the health of your computer? Malnourish PC are those that are performing slowly or unhealthy. There are some aspects to be considered about the unfavorable health of your PC. If you are eager to know about the things that will affect the health of your PC, read this article. Unhealthy PC has unhealthy performances. One of its unhealthy performances is the slow motion of its processes. There are some things in the system that are disturbing the health of your PC. These are some of them:
• The background programs – there are many active background programs of the computer that are consuming the space of the PC and disturb its speedy performance. If you have noticed that there are many icons in the computer systems tray, they are the background programs of the PC. These background programs are occupying the PC’s memory and will result to its poor performance.
• Full data in the hard drive – if you want your disk to continue its quality work, there must be at least 300-500MB free space of the PC. If your hard drive is flooded with many files and programs that are stored in the PC, it will slow down and freeze up.
• The load of the games that are stored in the PC – if you have downloaded games that are not suitable for your hard drive, this will affect the performance of the PC.
• Old or windows conflict – if you have different video drivers in your PC system, the Windows will be using both of them alternately. Duplicate drivers will affect the performance of the PC.
• The junk files or the left-overs – there are some times that when you delete some of the programs and applications; junks will be left behind the system. These junks or left overs will consume the space of the hard drive and will affect the performance of the PC. They are wasting the space of the disk drive and will not allow the other important files to occupy the space. They will create massive junks in the system that will eat up the space of the disk drive.
• The intruders or the parasites – there are some computer parasites that are intruding the health of your PC. They will destroy the system and will cause the abnormal functioning of the PC. Some of these parasites are the viruses, malwares, adwares, etc.
These factors are the responsible of the unhealthy performance of the PC. These are not helpful for your PC’s health and they need to be solved. If you will let these stuffs dwell longer in the system, they will ruin the health of your PC. The worst thing that will happen is that you might not recover the good health of your PC. Let not these stuffs enjoy their stay or invasion in the PC system. The longer they will dwell in the system, the shorter is your chance of recovering your speedy PC.

Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 2nd Gen and previous 1st Gen iCore Family Comparison.
Several Reviews for the 2nd Gen Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 Processors family have been read, comparisons between Intel 1st Gen and 2nd Gen of Processors, Advantages and disadvantages, benefits from the 2nd Gen Processors, In addition to that below are some Facts about the 2nd generation Intel Core Processor Family Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 and the preceding 1st generation of Intel iCore Processor family.

• Compared to previous generations, content creation is up to 42 percent faster and gaming up to 50 percent faster with 2nd generation Intel Core processors.
• There are close to one billion transistors inside a 2nd generation Intel Core processor. If a car were to have one billion parts – compared to the 30,000 they currently have – it would take the most productive car manufacturer 114 years to assemble this car.
• If a processor were a country and its transistor count was a country’s population, a 2nd generation Intel Core processor would be the third most popular country in the world (995 million+) just behind China and India.
• If you applied new Intel® Turbo Boost Technology to your daily activities, you could accomplish more in less time, giving you up to four hours back of your day, time that was previously spent waiting for your technology.
• A 2nd generation Intel Core processor contains more transistors (540 million) than the number of registered cars in the European Union , the U.S. and the Asia Pacific region combined.
• If every home in the U.S. had 30 light switches it would take the new chips about one nanosecond to turn on all 3.57 billion light switches in the housing units in the U.S.
• A 32nm transistor found in the new chips can switch on and off more than 300 billion times in one second. It would take you 4,000 years to flick a light switch on and off that many times.
• If you equate the power consumption of a laptop based on the 2nd generation Intel Core processors to electric clothing dryer, drying one load of clothes for 60 minutes is equivalent to running a laptop for 147 hours or 6 days and 2.4 hours. If you compare the processor to an electric oven, baking a pizza for 45 minutes at 350°F is equivalent to running 67 laptops for 50 hours.
• Compared to Intel’s first microprocessor, the 4004, introduced in 1971, a 32nm CPU runs over 4,000 times as fast and each transistor uses about 4,000 times less energy. The price per transistor has dropped by a factor of about 100,000.
• The Intel Core processor is printed on very pure silicon, which is refined from common beach sand. So the sand you once stepped on at the beach may be powering your notebook today.
• If you were to take the performance boost enabled by Intel® Turbo Boost to graphics- intensive applications and apply it to a Boeing 767 airplane, the plane could travel 50 percent faster. This means a flight that usually lasts one hour would take only 40 minutes.
• If you were to take the performance boost from the 2nd Gen Intel Core processor over the previous generation Intel Core Processor and apply it to a Boeing 767 airplane, the plane could travel two times faster. This means a flight that usually lasts two hours would take only 60 minutes.
• Integrating processing cores, memory controller and graphics subsystems on the same 32nm die joins a list of other disruptive technology “marriages” such as: (Cell Phones + Wireless Internet Access, Cloud Computing + Always-On Devices, Blogs + Google Ads, MP3 + Napster, YouTube + Flip Cams, Internet + TV)
