Overall performance of computer systems are better investigated and evaluated when its various components are considered, components such as the hardware, software and firmware.The comparative analysis of single-core and multi-core systems was carried out using Intel Pentium G640T 2.4GHz dualcore, Intel Pentium IV 2.4GHz single-core and Intel Pentium IV 2.8GHz single-core systems.The approach method was using hi-tech benchmarking and stress testing software(s) to examine systems' CPU and RAM for performance and stability.In all the tests, the components of dual-core had better rating when compared with single-core components; GFLOP result, and execution time for various processes rank G640T 2.4GHz dual-core above Pentium IV 2.4GHz and 2.8GHz single-core respectively.
