how much ram do you have, that is more likely the problem. I have an athlon 64 3000+ and it multitasks just fine, I can play CS1.6 while running a...
it's going to have 14 pipelines and somewhat week floating point operation abilities. expect AMD to be outperforming Intel by about 5% per clock....
how old was the video, 3-4 years old? times have changed, Intels prescott core creates tremendous amounts of heat while the athlon 64s run...
what do you use it for?
the 3500+ will rape the P4 in gaming and quite a few things like most graphics applications. the P4 may be SLIGHTLY ahead for general use, but you...

semprons are better than athlon XPs, Xps are crap. While I am on the subject though, Celeron Ds are even crappier because netburst need L2 Cache...
I never said it wa worth buying a new system. IMO you're fine for another few years or so. you just spoke as if you ha a godly system and you don't.
actually, only on approximately 0.001% of monitors, or at horrifically low screen resolutions and even then it isn't nopticable to the human eye....
yeah... right-click my computer... if you want some more depth though, go for something like this: start>>run>>"dxdiag" or run CPUz...
better than alienware? not happening at 500 or even 680. better than alien ware for the $ definately happening. What do you want it for, gaming or...
3000+s blow(compared to most other CPUs), they are cheap, that's why everyone likes them, except now, the 3200+ is 5-10$ cheaper. as for the...
they have had this in CS/CS:s/HL/HL2 forever: "FPS_max 500" I really don't see the point though, most screens don't refresh more than 100...
ohh no, my 7800GT is now obselete. I am sure the X800GTo and the 6600 still outdo it.
the FX 57 is 1100$ the 4000+ is 330$ (about 750$ diference) I don't think you can really compare them. and he is asking about the best processor,...
not by a ton, but it does. and when you consider the fact that it runs cooler on less energy at about 1/3rd the price you really have to think......
single core: for playing games, definately AMD's Athlon 64, for cinema 3d, Intel has a small lead with their Pentium 4 - very slight and it costs...
I have this awesome theory, it involves spendingg half as much for a graphics card half as often and being satisfied with good enough.
they have good quality components and good workmanship. They also charge about twice as much as the computer is actually worth.
more or less just use the two ports out of your comp as everyone said. if you want to see if you can use onboard, just go into BIOS and look...
I can summaraize this entire thread in one large, bold faced word: NO
AGP is a type of slot that cards fit into. PCI-e (16x) is better. the PSU he gave is good case matters for almost nothing, it's not hard to find...
get a server motherboard and run 4 2.8GHZ opertrons OC-ed to 3.4GHZ with 8GB ram and quad SLI for the ability to play HL2, Doom III, Quake 04, and...
anything past 40 is typically high, though there are exceptions. I have a fresh windows install and with multiple programs open I only have 32...
the diference between 05 and 06 is the release of dual core procs and the 7800 + x1800 nothing happened in 05...
