i dont get the difference bwt this and there republic of gamers motherboards

so i was just curious on how windows xp handles multiple cores such as a quad core cpu but i really want to know how it allocates if using a nehelm processor with HT enabled

and here i thought CryEngine 3 was gonna be better

lol AMD is owns intel in this segment giving away t-shirts with competitors products

yea am gonna keep the amd 940 and just buy the motherboard, any recommendations on that? i was looking at the asus M3A79-T Deluxe

if i do get a desktop it comes down to amd or intel. i sold most parts from my desktop in my sig except the case, graphic, ram, psu. just debating whether ddr3 is a big boost

I hope you weren't thinking of actually carrying it anywhere!

lol i dont bring laptops to class because if i know i do then i wont pay attention to prof at all, i was just gonna keep it in the dorm but i might just get the i7

well i no longer have the m1530 but i wanted something with kickass graphics thats the reason to looking at alienware

so here is my situation: i am currently a college student so during the summer i usually go home but i have to leave my rig where i usually stay during college i was thinking i should just get this http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/laptop-alienware-m17x?c=us&l=en&s=dhs...

lol all i have to say is that is how i feel exactly

i have no experience with mushkin but i can tell you OCZ is really good, bought their reaper series o/c's better than the corsairs i had before

are those idle temps or are you stressing the cpu, if its idle they seem a little high

i think the penty D will be faster but i think its hotter as well

you have 1 physical cpu but 2 logical. Basically you have 1 cpu that can process 2 threads at the same time.

That might just be the processor slowing down because it is not needed. You can disable the power saving features in the bios that should get your cpu to run at 2.83ghz all the time

guess its time to start making the ps3 folding too, i think i shall start resuming on monday and ill try to get an nvidia card maybe in another system or maybe experiment with my rig well thanks for the input guys

aw damn btw how much ppd does the 4870 usually give compared to its nvidia counterparts?

so i haven't been folding for a while due to certain things but am trying to come back and i was thinking i have a 4870 right now and was thinking about adding a 280 or 260gtx in the same system and have both of them fold is that possible? also i am currently using windows xp x64

you sure you applied thermal paste? to the heatsink and cpu

if the pricing of both builds are close i would choose the Core i7 it will last you longer in terms of it will be able to handle things in the future while the Core 2 Duo might not.... plus performance core i7 would be better.
