    Is there much point, dual cores been out for a while and there's very little support for it(at the mo..)

    4 real cores, if its hyperthreaded thats 8 in theory... hmmmmm :confused::confused:

    Its cool, its new, it will part lots of fools with lots of money.
    Why not?

    Even though dual-core now is like a sun-roof on a submarine, every tech-geek with more money than women to spend it on has one. Roll out something that sounds even better and they'll be upgrading from their dual-cores before they're even being used.

    Woo, this should make my plan to dump an A64 X2 into my existing s939 system over the summer even cheaper :)
    First year in a few that i won't be doing some kind of major upgrade.
