|
|
Hi guys,
I got a question. As you probably know, if you take off your SD card then turn on your TomTom ONE (and GO I assume) and keep the button pressed, then you'll get all kinds of statistics. The CPU speed is in there too.
Well, on my ONE it says 288Mhz If I am not mistaken it should have a 380Mhz CPU. Any idea what's happening ? Stats are wrong on that screen ? Something else ? Anyone else can check on their TomTom ONE ?
Thanks,
Iranicus |

So why do we see 288 Mhz ? Defective units ? Variable speed CPU ? |

As does my RIDER, which also claims a 380MHz processor. _________________ Tim |

Do you think a message to TomTom support will do any good ? |

Quite possible that the CPU voltage is lowered when the CPU is idle.
For comparison my PC's AMD 64 3700+ runs at over 2GHz but when it is idle it runs at a lower voltage and around 900MHz, therefore less heat and less cooling fan noise required! AMD CnQ (Cool n Quiet)
Athough only TT could confirm this. |
