Okay Fellas. All you tech heads. Yeah....
I'm most probably getting a new PC. Soon. And I have no money. But I'm getting one anyway.
So here's the question.
I'm looking at dual cores. I'm looking at Intel (I know about AMD stuff but I feel better with Intel). I'm looking at 3.0-3.2Ghz speeds and I'm looking for advice.
- Is Dual Core worth the price? ie, does it make any difference?
I know the code has to be written specifically to exploit dual core processors, and its still in that bridging phase where people are starting to go towards dual cores. I know some of the newer games have a separate physics engine that takes advantage of the dual core and I know for a fact Vista will take advantage of dual cores and multi core processors are the way to go....so I just need some advice as to whether its worth getting now.....since I won't be doing any cpu upgrades for a few more years after this one I'd like to know what my money is going down for.
Soooo....lemme know what you guys think.
C'mon Nweb and Hentaijiji...I know you 2 have some secrets to spill.

Men are a lot like bank accounts. If they're not loaded, they don't generate a lot of interest. :(
