In July 2007 I built a new system based around this -

Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600
Gigabyte GA_P35_DS3R
GeIL 4GB (4x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency

I came over from a P4 3.6 system and to be honest I was disappointed and I still am.
An example is that I've just been unraring and its going at a good speed.
I then load Microsoft Outlook and the unraring slows to a crawl and it takes Outlook ages to load in.
As soon as it loads in it goes back to speed.
I then click on Firefox and again it slows until Firefox is loaded.
I've put up with this for over a year but surely it can't be right!!!
My P4 3.6 definitely does multi-tasking waaaaay better.

Any suggestions?
