I have a HP Desktop with an updated X2 6000 processor. It is plenty fast for most tasks, but I would like to have better multi-tasking abilities i.e. edit photos while watching DVDs and doing other tasks, and I want everything to run a little faster.
May sound like a dumb question, but how much would a quad core help with this situation. Does Windows 7 use all four cores when multi-tasking? Any suggestion on which processors would be worth my while in terms of a speed increase?
I don't want to do it if it is just going to be a little faster.
