going to buy the E6600 conroe but dont wanna make the transition to dual core rather wait till vista
are conroe benchmarks done one 1 active core or 2 ?
if i decided to run it one 1 core for 32bit xp will there be any performance decrease ?
Windows XP Home does not support dual core (to the best of my knowledge). Windows XP Pro does support dual core.
As far as i know intel will release two versions of conroe - core 2 duo (dual core) and core 2 solo(single core).
