Looks good GarHar after looking at your "My PC" the other day i thought you had changed to an x2.

May i ask why you didn't go for an intel core 2 duo (it is a lot better accordfing to benchmarks)?

i changed from a x2 3800+ to a x2 4400+

And when i built this computer, core duo wasn't out...however, even if it was - benchmarks don't mean all that much to me

what they don't tell you - is that AMD kicks Intels rear end in true 64bit processing...
