Hmm... Hyperthreading I hear has little preformance gains, sometimes even preformance losses on non-optimised applications...

I'm gonna wait a bit for AMD's hammer... Which has 2 -real- cores to do true multithreading... instead of that "fake" HTT crap


... Time has no bearing...
...when the whiteout begins...

Don't come after me...

Hmmm new pentiums w/hyperthreading.. Now if they'll make the motherboards that will truly support them....That will be the point that will show wether or not they are any good...

Not with the new AMD line of CPU's (which will have 2 completely seperate cores instead of allowing the ALU's and FPU's to be adressed simultaneously).

You can look at it as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of human life, or just chalk it up to my being a sick, bloodthirsty monster. Either way, it's all the same.

It sucks with SDRam, and you need to stick thermal paste between the chipset cooling sink and the northbridge... after that it can OC with DDR DRam pretty well.
