lol i don't know enough about it, but 64-bit is going to be huge. 16-32bit was, i don't see why this wouldn't be.
also, what did your memory benchmark?

actually it was at 5800 at 2.0ghz lol
not to mention i o/ced the memory to ddr424 lol.
corsairXMS = win.
then when i oced to 2.4ghz it was 240x10, with a ddr333 divider... which was ddr400 ultimately...
still benched 5800.
now, i oced that little bit extra and turned the timings up and it benchmarks 6gbps lol.

yea... 3800mbps is really fast anyways... to tell you the truth i don't even need 6gbps, thats like 1/6 second to request my ram when its FILLED.
lol cause i only have 1gb.
my next upgrade will be to get 2gb... in a year or so... lol... probly gonna be some ddr500... SUPER fast. probly around 7-8gbps.
I NEED A CAR!

doubt it. its a mobile proc, they have made 478 mobos that are compatible with core duo though.
make a new thread next time. lol.

yes, hence the different names for the different chips. haha... lol[-0MEGA-] said:

or maybe they have other plans for the name "pentium"
haha i doubt it... but "conroe" would be comparable to "toledo" or "newcastle." thats like calling core duo "yonah." conroe could end up being called pentium 5 haha... duno tho.

i wasnt being sarcastic, Intel really is dropping the Pentium name, and replaceing it with names such as "core" as in Core Duo, or Core Solo.fade2green514 said:or maybe they have other plans for the name "pentium"

[-0MEGA-] said:wow, you have that totally wrong.
My cpu outerforms the A64 3200+ with ease, it actually outperforms the AMD X2 3800+.
Try getting a CPU score of 1530 in 3DMark06 with an a64, or 30sec in SuperPi with an A64...aint gonna happen. ( I also hold the forum record of 30sec
Also, the Conroe is about twice as good as the X2 4800+ in multi-media benchmarks.
rig in sig.

14 more CPU points is hardly anything.

i dont know much about the intel duo core but when i went to have a look at a system being built for me they steered me away forom the more expensive intel duo core into the cheapr amdx2 and they told me that a 3800+x2 would outperform any intel for gamming

and u guys shouldnt be so quick to judge something u havent actually seen perform let alone outperfome a 4800+ x2 u will never know until; u buy it imagine this they tell u allthese things and try to rpoove it with bogus bench marcks and u guys all run out to buy one but in the end it isnt that much beter in the first place until u have had one and seen that it outpreforms it then tell me that it will be 2x beter than a 4800+

"core duo not that much better" not... "core duo sucks"
either its different from "conroe"... or "conroe" isn't as good as it was thought to be. ("benchmarks" report about 50% increase in performance... when performance clearly shows that it could simply be the extra L2 cache)
core duo's are good, but it could be complimented with better hardware in a desktop, rather than a lappy. good proc tho
BTW my proc got an 1908 just now lol.... of course in another instance it got a 1800, and another a 2000 (???)
my score changes each time i run it, its not consistent at all...
