AMD CPU and Intel Equivalent?

Is it worth the effort of assigning programs to cores? Or would it be better to just leave it LOL

i would imagine if you are using something like a phenom x6, and used it for apps that arent designed for multicore cpus then it would make a big difference assigning each to have its own core.

Firefox isn't actually that great for speed. It takes longer to open than IE, for example. If you want speed, go Chrome. If you want extreme customisation, go Firefox.

What's funny with that, a long time ago in a galaxy far far away... Firefox use to be as light as Chrome. Now it's become as clunky as what the Mozilla browser was. I believe it was Netscape based...
 
Chrome fails on a lot of sites I need to access, though IE9 looks to be pretty good regardless. I don't get the hype of different browsers for speed. Compatibility is king, no?

I prefer speed. As I use my computer for very fast searches of internet browsing and when a site takes 3 seconds to load instead of 1 it bugs me. I also like the PC itself to be fast. And form of lag bugs me :)

It will be interesting to see what happens with firefox 4. It is supposed to be faster.

I am a massive firefox fanboy. I could never swap to any other browser as I have got used to and rely on all my addons. Also speed tests dont take into account the time/bandwidth saved by blocking adverts. Although chrome has an adblocker now doesnt it?

yes, I believe it does. Well I think so LOL because when I was using it I didn't get any ad pops ups which I love and the general speed of using it is great. I wouldn't mind either google chrome or firefox. I'm just in it of the speed. Although if i change to firefoox I assume I'll have to re add all of my favorites?
