Just a quick question about the X2s. Im thinking (again) of geting an X2 but wondered how programs will run if they only support single processors.
Do they run at all?
Do they run at the single core speed or will the OS sort it out to spread the load and get max speeds?

Also I normally play games like Half Life 2 and Doom 3 so would the X2 be useful for running them or would a single core be better?

Cheers people.
 
Will you see speed benefits of using and X2 even on XP 32bit or do you really require XP64 to get any extra benefit?

I guess what Im really saying is, is it worth getting XP64
 
Ok cheers I think that skinda made up my mind then. I dont really fancy going to the 64bit XP just yet but as long as the dual core will work just the same in the 32bit version Im happy.
Thanks again.
