Ever since I built my new 64-Bit AMD Dual Core X2 4400+ rig
(w/2gb of DDR, X-Fi Sound Card, 3 Raptor Hard Drives) and running Windows Vista Ultimate,
I swear, it seems less snappy than my old Intel system with Windows XP.
For example, games like BF2 seen to stutter at times and even DVD playback seems to not run so smooth.
So, here are some questions:
Should I just dump Vista and install XP onto this new system of mine?
What good does Dual Core do anyway? I don't seem to see much benefit?
And what about this 64-bit stuff, what kinda improvement should there be?
OR, ... is something just not configured correctly?
Thanks!!!!
