Dual core - now or wait. Well, it seems that the single core does not function well, when you are gamer, and have some apps running (like Bit Tornado, and other stuff), so I believe it's time for dual core solution Yet...that brings more questions :) 1)...

Dual Core or Single core if I was to buy RIGHT NOW?. My pIII is old school. And sucks. I have cash (for once). Time to upgrade :) Anyways, the question is this. Do I buy a dual core or a single core. If I went Single core, i would go a 3200+ Dual Core...

core! those who love the single core dont understand the joys of a dual core...oh how sweet it is! AMD X2 4200+ MSI K8N-Neo2 evga 6800gt 2gb (4x512mb crucial ballistix) My next CPU upgrade will definately be a dual core. I hope dual core prices will come...

higher freqfency RAM. The DDR2 controler on the AM2 will not boost the performance of K8 architecture as long as the core waits for data from L2. Larger L2 cache per core will solve many data lags and AMD plans to implement 2MB insted of 1MB in their high-end...

is really worth it. I know that software/games will eventually be designed to use more cores, but if 'eventually' means 3 years down the road (before its standard), then wouldn't it be worth getting a dual core now and wait until there are 8x cores or more?...

a cheap dual core. or wait till june for the Phenom II X2 (dual core) 3.0 GHz CPU since you will be using only 1 core, a dual core will be more than enough. also, are you sure your games are that old (non supporting dual core)? No, I meant I usually multitask...

Intel can even think of. As for a multitasking PC the AMD dual cores as the best you can get!! And yes it is worth getting a dual core, I would love to get one but i don't have the cash!! Ok first off the 939 opteron's will be around for awhile, posted a link...

happening later this year on the Core 2 Duo and Quad? It might be worth waiting for that and possibly getting a quad core for much the same price as the dual core is now. @inshadows, while the 8800 is unquestionably the fastest card out now one of my questions...

a 651 right now to replace my Intel 530, now the reason I'm not going for a dual core is because I am waiting for Intels next offering Conroe (which is also a dual core) towards the end of the year, so upgrading to a dual core just isnt cost effective right...

Mulit-core proc OS problems worth it?. With all the problems with the dual core CPU’s from AMD and Intel (untested registry edits, software) are they worth it? I figured that I would update to a dual core CPU and be ready when true dual proc and/or multi-thread...
