After seeing a sweet deal on a dual core Athlon 64 4200 processor I was unable to resist getting one. It's been
over a year since my last processor upgrade, and with dual core Athlons becoming affordable I decided to end my single core suffering. No longer will my web development suffer as I decompress an archive, they both get a dedicated core! As a bonus, they'll both finish sooner thanks to a faster clock speed. Those of you still using a single core, I bite my thumb at you. Those of you already using dual processor or dual core systems can no longer derive humor in my inability to properly multitask. Those of you determined to best me have less than a month before the next
LAN party. Those in the know remember I disable network ports to machines that best me. Of course, a full
old and
new system comparison was performed, revealing how much a faster processor helps out with just about everything. Hey! Whoever just said I only have a GeForce 6800 video card, I heard you! Keep quiet!
