To single-core or duel-core?
Last response: in CPUs
Having looked at the CPU comparison charts, I still cannot decide if I should go for a single-core AMD 64 or a duel-core AMD X2? In some tests the AMD 64 performs better such as in the graphics, in other tests the X2 performs better such as in the multi-tasking.
Does anyone have any personal experience with comparing the single/duel core chips?
I pretty much use my PC for everything from surfing the Internet, some programming, watching/recording TV, Office applications, and gaming (typically real-time and turn-based strategy)
Sould I just get the best AMD 64 I can get, or is the AMD X2 worth the extra cost?

There is no such thing as f***ing duel-core. It's dual-core. Anyone can make a typo, I know I do, but I doubt a lot of the people writing duel-core are, in 99% of the cases it's pure ignorance.So, next time, remember, dual-core.
Anyone can make a run-on sentence with incorrect punctuation, too.
I highly doubt that it was a typo, especially as the same (mis)spelling was used consistently in the topic header and throughout the post. A typo is an accidental typing error. Not knowing how to spell is someting else. The frequent use of this particular spelling is almost always due to lack of knowledge, not typing mistakes. Spelling impared individuals will see it and think 'This is what everybody is writing, it must be the way it is spelled'. The part where he/she wrote 'Sould I just get the best AMD 64 I can get, or is the AMD X2 worth the extra cost?' is a typo, the duel-core bits were most likely not.
