Gundam-Ranger-X July 31st, 2005, 05:25 PM 3.2 what? Ghz? And what type of chip? P4? Athalon?
Mike 1508 July 31st, 2005, 05:27 PM P4 3.2 Ghz
Gundam-Ranger-X July 31st, 2005, 05:28 PM Dual Core? Hyper Threading (waste of money)? Generic P4?
Mike 1508 July 31st, 2005, 05:29 PM its got Hyper Threading
Gundam-Ranger-X July 31st, 2005, 06:17 PM ouch. you should have gotten Dual Core.
Mike 1508 July 31st, 2005, 07:32 PM ya how much more would it of been?
Gundam-Ranger-X July 31st, 2005, 08:32 PM Dunno, haven'T really looked at a price. But it is worth it.
Hyper treading: adds a second, virtual, processor. However, comon ressources are shared thus limiting it's usefulness.
Dual core: adds a second, virtual, processor with it's own set of ressources.
cfioncn July 31st, 2005, 09:52 PM High-end single cores are currently better than high end dual cores, but less future-proof and they're not faster by much...Plus a Dual-core with HT = 2 real, 2 virtual procs for a total of 4. That's dead sexy to see when you bring up the Task Manager :P
