lol, be interesting to see what difference the 2 cpus will make

FX55 overclocked should beat the X2 (overclocked) in synthetic benchmarks, however the X2 will probably provide a more enjoyable and smooth overall user experience.

It's amazing the benefits that dual cores/dual CPUs can bring, even if it's not apparent in benchmarks.

Heh I find it funny the moderator of the gadgets forum asking that!

Its a hobby, a community sometimes and contrary to popular opinion it aint just for loners can be a very social thing.

HATE beta though. it might fix that problem, but u can be guarenteed that something else wont work. Also most users dont even get as far as to flash the bios, the minute they hit the switch the chip is fried :mad:

Gilgamesh · 19-12-2005 4:55pm

just saw that overclock.co.uk has them 512s in stock

DemonOfTheFall · 19-12-2005 4:55pm

Feeling less and less like using a DFI. I know they're isolated incidents but still... My mate would kill me if I chose a DFI board for his rig and it nuked a 550 euro CPU or 300 euro worth of RAM.
