    AMD releases "Dual-Core Optimiser" software

    Apparently this is the first of many software/bios updates......

    "Intended for all owners of dual-core processors, AMD Dual-Core Optimizer is a piece of software that allegedly improves gaming performance by bypassing Windows' API in some specific situations.

    This utility helps that software access the RDTSC instruction directly, in order to correct the Time Stamp Counter on separate cores. It effectively keeps both cores working in parallel and reduces the differing video performance effects, or any other flaws that relate to timing situations in dual-core or upcoming multicore processors."

    Just tried it; it took out AVG7, but that just needed a reinstall. System feels more responsive.

    I had a few problems but after a few reboots they have fixed themselves - as I expected really - a nice little addition from AMD . I can't wait for the full version
