A64 X2 Dual core - which drivers!

[mrk]

So far AMD have 2 drivers out, one is the dual core optimizer and the 2nd is the driver itself for A64 processors.

I am running Both of these

- Dual core optimizer version 1.0.0.0083
- Athlon64 Processor Driver version 1.2.2.2 (though the AMD USA site has a newer version on!)

MS also have a hotfix under the KB article number [KB896256] which I have installed.

Just wanted to know, anyone else here using all 3? are all 3 needed?

Cheers!

I've found out now the processor driver is only needed if you wnat cool & quiet - the dual core optimiser is *** dealy to go for

I only install the AMD driver, didn't use dual core optimizer thought it hogged the system.

it's a driver, not a software that runs in the bg like normal
