Hello alll, I'm getting ready to build a new system, and I have a few questions, I've seen a few answers here, but I'm not sure if anyone has asked this EXACT question...
I'm thinking about doing a Dual Core system, since I do graphic design, and sometimes like to have Photoshop, Illustrator, my internet browser, and some kind of music app open all at the same time.
Since I am on a budget, I will be buying parts on a monthly basis, and what I want to know is if there are regular chips that will work in the dual core socket.
In other words, can I buy a single core(Is that even the right term?) chip and use it in a board made for dual core until I save a little more money and buy the dual core, or is that just wishful thinking?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike Wells
