Sweet :)
The only reason I OC my CPU is because I can’t get all 6 cores functioning without it (3% OC)..
I really wish AMD took over nVidia instead of ATI.. ATI has been nothing but trouble. I am pushing 2 nVidia cards.. wish I could find a better cooling system for the vid cards.. impossible here though :/
I Believe it was AMD that Bought ATI.
Nvidia is still their own company if i remember.
Fine by me though.
I’m an Intel and Nvidia guy.
I don’t need no AMD/ATI hassles.
I’ve got an AMD Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition, and tried to get the other two cores working, but it bluescreens right off, even with all four cores underclocked.
You got the extra cores working by overclocking?
Not too important, but you did say that. :’) — “I really wish AMD took over nVidia instead of ATI...”
Intel’s had nVidia in its crosshairs for a couple of years, and not in a good, takeover way. Intel’s been pushing its own, integrated graphics processing, which is one reason; the other reason is nVidia’s flirting with the CPU market. The GPU makers have that very-multi-core expertise that should be helpful in CPU design particularly for mobile computing.
The AMD takeover of ATI was done to compete with / one-up Intel vis-a-vis integrated graphics. And nVidia had problems with melting solder on some of its designs in the past few years. It’s probably just a matter of a year or few before nVidia has to find a buyer.
