Just curious,
when i am converting mp3's to wav for editing, i notice that my processor (Duron 900) uses at the most 90% of its processing power to make the conversion. not just that, its the total load on the processor at the time.
i want to know, if the processor is not using 100% of its processing power to make the conversion, then why would say a theoretical Duron 1500 do the job any faster?
Im not talking system/ram upgrades, simply a faster duron. My simple logic would have it that a faster processor simply would only use say 40% of its processing power to do the same job, and do the job in exactly the same time.
I know this is not the case, but why?
