I recently upgraded my pc and got a quad core q6600 2.4 (whoop go me)
I can tell its quite fast but so far i havnt really stretched its skills, the most thats happened is ive view all 4 of my processors in task manager and it is a pritty site.
I was wondering if xp 32 bit edition hampers the effectiveness of the 4 cores and whether they can still be taken advantage of by applications. I just bought bioshock to test it all out and im running 4gb of 800mhz ddr2 and a 8500gt 512mb gfx card so i thought to put it mildly ide drop dung from a great height all over it. however I have had to change the gfx settings down to medium if not low.
Could anyone help me get the most out of this system without the aid of vista. Would xp 64 edition really help?
ive also got opensuse 10.2 64 to have a look at compiz fusion and eventually migrate away from windows.
but for now, how do i drop dung from a great height?![]()
